Homemade Maple Syrup

My parents always made this syrup and I really don't like store-bought syrup. It's too thick and fake tasting. This recipe is great and so easy!

Combine the following in a saucepan

1 cup white sugar**
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup water

Stir and cook on medium heat until it boils. Remove from heat and stir in:
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. maple flavoring

Allow to cool before you serve because it's very hot. Enjoy! (My husband and I usually triple this because it stores easily in the fridge.)

**For a lower sugar recipe we use 1 cup of Splenda instead of the white sugar.
