2 cups whole milk

1/2 cup mascarpone

1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

1/4 cup orange juice

1 tbsp. orange zest

1/8 tsp baking soda

1 pinch of salt

Cooking Steps

1. In a saucepan, add all the ingredients and mix until fully incorporated.

2. Turn heat to medium-high, once the mix starts to simmer, turn heat to low-simmer and stir occasionally to make sure it does not burn at the bottom. As it continues to simmer, taste and add sugar to your desired taste. After a bit, the mix will start to change color to caramel. This is the sign that your sauce is almost done. With a spoon see if the mix coats the back side, if it does, turn temp off and let it rest for about 5 minutes.

3. Make your favorite pancakes and stack them on a plate.

4. Spoon over the Glaze, add some pistachios or crushed walnuts, add some berries around the pancakes.

5. Serve and enjoy.
