For a richer flavor, use dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar. Adjust the amount of maple extract to your preference. Start with 1/2 teaspoon and add more to taste. If the syrup crystallizes during storage, simply reheat it gently in a saucepan until the crystals dissolve. A small pat of butter stirred in at the end adds richness.
