Exactly how many warm rolls slathered in Maple Butter is it acceptable to eat in one sitting? Two? Six? A Costco-size bag? Asking for a friend.
One bite and you’ll wonder how you ever lived your life without this glorious condiment. It’s creamy, sweet, a little salty, and filled with the comforting flavor of maple syrup.
