Spicy Cinnamon Syrup

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon curry powder

Method

  1. Melt the butter in a small saucepan.
  2. Once the butter has melted, stir in all the ground spices until they are well incorporated.
  3. Gradually mix in the brown sugar. It is fine if the butter and sugar do not blend perfectly at this stage.
  4. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil and let it bubble for 1 or 2 minutes. This will thicken the syrup and help combine the ingredients.
  5. Take the pan off the heat and allow the syrup to rest for a minute.
  6. Drizzle the finished syrup over your chosen dessert and serve.
