Maple Syrup 


Ingredients

2 cups white sugar
1 cup boiling water
1/2 teaspoon maple flavored extract (I used vanilla essence)

Directions

In a saucepan, combine sugar and water. Cook and stir until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat, and stir in maple flavoring. Serve warm.

Serve it with some butter on top. One can also garnish it with fresh strawberries on top and some ice cream to go with it.

Tip for strawberry : Froze fresh strawberries when in season and they taste same whenever you use them
