Orange Syrup (Macrina Coffee Cake)

A syrup forked into its own recipe per the archive's rule that accompanying components (glazes, marinades, rubs, sauces, etc.) are kept as standalone recipes. It also remains inline in Orange- Chocolate Coffee Cake, where it is originally used.

Ingredients

• ½ cup (120 ml) sugar
• ¹/³ cup fresh orange juice

Method

1. To make the orange syrup, heat the sugar and orange juice in a medium saucepan. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture becomes a clear syrup. Brush the hot syrup on the top of loaves. Do this several times, using all the syrup. Cool the cakes for 30 minutes while you make the chocolate glaze.
