When you make maple sugar don’t forget to make maple butter. To make make maple butter, you boil the syrup to 230 degrees F. It will take a loooooooong time. When it gets there you cool to 75 degrees F. or under then you whip and you whip and you whip until you get tired. Then you give it to a sibling, and they whip and they whip and they whip and they whip until they get tired then they give it to someone else…
You do that until the butter looks like peanut butter then you spread it on bread (or don’t bother) and enjoy! 🙂
