A Delicious and Warm Dessert Sauce

Spoon this easy and fabulous sauce over ice cream, baked apples, bananas, poached pears, or souffles.  It will keep for a month in the refrigerator.  If  you have any leftovers, that is!


Maple Dessert Sauce

1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 Tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons light corn syrup

Combine all ingredients in a small heavy saucepan.  Heat over high heat, stirring constantly, until sugar dissolves and butter is melted, 2 to 3 minutes.  Reduce heat to medium; cook, without stirring, for 5 minutes.  Remove from heat; let cool slightly before serving.  If desired, sauce can be cooled to room temperature and stored in a tightly covered container for up to one month.  Reheat before serving.  Makes about 1 cup.
