McDonald's Sweet Chili Sauce

2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons white vinegar
2 tablespoons water
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/4 cup light corn syrup
6 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 teaspoons chili sauce (sambal olek)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
pinch ground cayenne pepper

1. Combine vinegar and water in a small bowl. Whisk in cornstarch.

2. Combine the cornstarch solution with the remaining ingredients in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir often until mixture comes to a full boil, cook for 1 minute, then turn off the heat and let the sauce cool, uncovered. Sauce will thicken as it cools.
