Holidays are when everybody tries to impress with decadent dessert photos and videos posted on social media. Sure, you can make a Croquembouche or perfect your winter-themed Buche de Noel. I’m all in for the fancy desserts. However, these days more people are skipping dessert. So all the effort to impress can fall flat. This gingerbread syrup makes boring vanilla ice cream delicious, perks up your morning brew, and is terrific drizzled on pancakes, waffles, and coffeecake. Make extra for gifts and sit back and enjoy the aroma of winter spices and your holiday without the stress.
