Wet Walnuts Ice Cream Topping #Recipe

For as long as I can remember I’ve loved Smuckers Walnuts in Syrup on ice cream.  Those teeny jars were like heaven to me and often I would pass on ice cream for dessert if we didn’t have any.

Recently I’ve been splurging and buying it but I could literally eat the whole jar in one sitting.  The cost close to $4 per jar so it hurt my wallet with every delicious spoonful.  This weekend I decided I was going to figure out how to make it myself. I researched a ton of recipes but most were so fancy adding ginger, cinnamon and other spices. What I wanted was simple and straightforward so I came up with this recipe.
