I recommend using a good candy thermometer to obtain good results. This is a simple, old fashioned candy. Yummy!

Time 50m

Yield 1/2 pound

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
2 tablespoons corn syrup
1/2 cup water
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter
3 drops vanilla extract

Steps:

  • In a large pot, combine brown sugar, corn syrup, water and salt.
  • Cook over medium-low heat, stirring, until sugar is dissolved.
  • Do not let this come to a boil until sugar has completely dissolved.
  • Turn the heat up a bit and continue cooking to the hard ball stage (250F).
  • Add butter and stir to keep from scorching.
  • Cook until mixture will separate into hard but not brittle strands (270F) when tested in cold water.
  • Stir in the vanilla.
  • Pour candy in a thin sheet onto a greased slab.
  • (I don't have a slab. I turn a large metal baking pan upside down and grease the bottom- works great!).
  • Mark into squares while still warm, creasing it deeply.
  • Break into pieces as soon as it is cool.

This candy is a great way to use up leftover egg whites. I always have a few extra after I make a cake or cookies.

This candy is perfect for making ahead of time. I made a batch last week and it's still just as good.

This candy is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still good. I would recommend using a little less sugar next time.

This candy is really easy to make, but it takes a while to cook. Be patient and it will be worth it.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my candy turned out too hard. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
