Ingredients
- 3 3/4 c. sugar
- 1 1/2 c. light corn syrup
- 1 c. water
- food coloring, optional
- flavoring, optional
Preparation
Step 1
In large pot, combine first 3 ingredients. Cook on medium heat, stirring to make sure that all of the sugar dissolves. Boil the sugar mixture until it reaches 300 degrees, or until it hardens into threads when a dropped into cold water (15-20 minutes). Once you reach 300 degrees you can remove it from the heat, and add a few drops of food coloring and/or flavoring. Pour into a sided cookie sheet sprayed with cooking spray. Allow to cool either by allowing it to sit, or put it in the refrigerator. Once candy has hardened, break into pieces.
