Buttermilk Sauce

Now that we can make buttermilk, we have a wide variety of new recipes open to us. When I discovered how to make cultured buttermilk, I wondered if it would make this sauce like "real buttermilk". I'm happy to report that yes it does.
The recipe is really simple and has many great uses. Originally this syrup was used on our Saturday morning pancakes, but once we tasted it, we thought it would be great on bread pudding and ice cream. Jessica thinks this tastes like Werthers Caramel. It tastes so good. Please try it.

Buttermilk Syrup

1 1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup buttermilk
2 Tbsp. corn syrup
1 stick butter
1 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. vanilla extract

Combine the first 5 ingredients. Bring to a boil and boil for 7 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Serve over pancakes and waffles.
