  • Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  • Once dissolved, bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer, and cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in ¼ teaspoon almond extract, ½ teaspoon butter extract, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  • Let the syrup cool to room temperature.
  • Transfer the cooled syrup to an airtight container and refrigerate; store up to two weeks.

Notes

The longer you simmer the syrup the thicker it will become.  For a thinner syrup only simmer for 12-15 minutes
Almond extract is very strong, so be careful when adding it
Play around with different extracts to make different kinds of "cookie" syrups!
