    Default Macaroni and cheese and syrup anyone?

    My wife and I like to experiment with syrup in different things and one that I do all the time is adding a little syrup to my boxed Mac and cheese. It's good on baked mac and cheese as well but don't over do it. Anybody else got any crazy things they do with syrup? Keeping with food of course.

    Yes, on greek yogurt - with some sliced almonds and dried blueberries!

    I take a burger, add bacon and then slobber on some maple cream. Love it!

    I've posted it elsewhere, but make eggnog with maple syrup instead of white sugar. Way better way to make it.

    I need to reply to this thread...forgot all about the opening post mentioning mac-n-cheese, but yes, it's freaking awesome! I tried some on mine last night and I suggest everyone do it. My son had to try it too and he agreed!

    A friend of mine says that's too far with maple syrup. He's clearly wrong.

    My favorite is on Vanilla ice cream. But I
    Scorched a gallon years ago, it was very smoky. I mixed 1 cup syrup along with my original venison jerky seasonings and it turned out AMAZING! Almost like honeybarbecue but better.

    We sometimes make gourmet apple sauces and one of the favorites is tart apple sauce + maple syrup + dried currants.
