My husband and I run a large maple syrup operation here in northern Vermont. During the sugaring season we hire on about 12 people and every Friday I make lunch for the crew (thus the moniker). Hiking up and down mountains in deep snow, loaded with gear is hard work, as you can imagine. This is a dessert that is warm, filling, energy-boosting and unbelievably scrumptious. Bourbon and maple were made for each other but you can also substitute rum. You may as well make it a mostly Vermont dish by topping it off with Ben & Jerry's vanilla or Heath Bar Crunch.
