  1. Where were you when I needed you yesterday!?!? I searched your whole blog for a syrup recipe like this and nothin', so I was left to my own devices–let's just say the outcome was not so pretty! Thanks for finally getting your act together!!:) I love the blog~but love you even more!

  2. Jamie: The pancakes with the buttercream syrup would be a dream come true to eat un-guilty-ly (new word?) and I'm dying to try the recipe, but honestly, I have no idea what a cube of butter is! I'm old as dirt and have never heard that term before. Please help quickly so I can get this food into my mouth!

  3. Palleta,
    Your comment has me chuckling and chuckling!
    I'm sure you are much younger than dirt….and much more beautiful as well.
    1 cube of butter is the same thing as 1 stick of butter, or 1/2 C butter.
    Hope this helps and may you be savoring ButterCream Syrup soon!

  6. Hey, where on earth did you find pretzel salt for your soft pretzels? I have looked everywhere and can't find it.

  7. Mmm good! I definitely agree…it wouldn't be heaven without this Butter Syrup! ๐Ÿ™‚ From the moment I “stole” this recipe from my college roommate many years ago I have always had the idea of mass producing it and selling it somehow(maybe at our next neighborhood bake sale?)…it's liquid gold I tell ya and I just know there would be many that would pay top dollar for this stuff! Let me know if you're in…with you're beautiful pictures and marketing skills we could definitely have some success! sure love ya Jamie…and your blog…it always brings a smile to my face and leaves my mouth drewling!!!
