Have you guys eaten breakfast at Magelby's Fresh? If not, you are so missing out, mostly because they have the most amazing syrup ever. But now, I too have the recipe and I'm sharing it with you!
In a saucepan, mix:
1/2 C Buttermilk
1 cube butter
1 C sugar
1 tbsp Karo Syrup
Dissolve and boil
Add:
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
And done! Amazing over french toast, pancakes, waffles, or just eaten straight with a spoon. Don't tell my husband that I do that!

Tres Leche
My mom found this recipe online. I made it for KJ's birthday and it has become our new favorite!
1 pkg. yellow cake mix
1 pkg. vanilla instant pudding
1 c. milk
1 c. vegetable oil
4 eggs
Milk syrup:
1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk
1 can (12 oz.) evaporated milk
1 c. half & half
1 tsp. vanilla extract
Top with Cool Whip and strawberries (optional). We don't usually do the cool whip.
Preheat oven to 350. Spray a 9 x 13 pan with cooking spray. Put the cake ingredients into a bowl. Mix with a hand mixer on low speed until well mixed (for about 1 min.). Scrape the batter off the sides with a spatula and then beat an additional 2 min. on medium speed. The batter should be well blended. Pour into the greased pan. Bake at 350 for 30-35 min. When done, allow to cool.
While the cake is cooling, make the milk syrup. Whisk together the ingredients. Poke the cake all over with a fork. Using a large spoon, pour the milk mixture over the cake. Let the syrup soak into the cake. Continue doing this until all of the syrup is used up. When you have finished, not all of the syrup will be completely absorbed.
Cover the cake loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 2 hours (KJ says the longer the better it is).
Before serving, spread with Cool Whip and top with sliced strawberries.

Honey Curry Rolls
I'm eating one of these right now and it is so amazing I had to share.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 c. milk
1 1/3 c. vegetable oil
2 tbs. honey
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. curry powder
2 c. whole wheat flour
2 c. bread flour
2 tsp. yeast
We mix the ingredients in our breadmaker, but you can do it by hand as well. Once the dough is mixed, let it rise for one hour, then punch it down. Divide the dough in half and let rest for 15 minutes. Divide the dough into rolls and bake in ungreased cupcake tins for 10 minutes at 400 degrees. Enjoy!
The curry gives it a little kick and a great yellow color, but the honey saves it from being too hot.
It goes great with soup as well.

Chocolate Pudding Pie
Simple. Fast. Good.
Pie Filling
I got this recipe here
SPREAD into crust; cover with remaining whipped topping.
REFRIGERATE at least 1 hour or until ready to serve. Add sprinkles just before serving. Store leftover pie in refrigerator.
Amendment al a Annie:
* Skip the sprinkles and use crushed Symphony bar chunks
* I used the whole tub of Cool Whip (small size)--it lightened it up, then used another tub (I said GOOD, not HEALTHY, ok?) to frost the top.
