Instructions
1) Place the milk and sugar in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and bring to a simmer. Turn heat down to low and simmer for 2 hours or until the milk is reduced by about half. Stir every 15 minutes or so to keep the milk from burning.
2) Strain through a fine-mesh sieve if desired and stir in the butter. Store in the refrigerator until needed.
