"I found this little treasure on the net (Kitchn site) a while back and printed it out for when my plums come into season. I was so busy preserving when the plums came into season that I forgot about this recipe until it was nearly too late. I am so glad I finally made this recipe, a few tweaks and this recipe turned out so scrumdiddlyumptious. Serving were for 2 but I devoured 2 plums with ice-cream, with no guilt at all! NOTE: I like my plums a little tart, but if you prefer you can add 1/2 tablespoon more of then brown sugar to the syrup."
