List of Ingredients
2 C. granulated sugar
3/4 C. sour cream
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract or 1/4 tsp. almond extract (or both)
1/2 C. broken nut meats
10 candied cherries, slicedRecipe
In a 2-quart saucepan combine sugar and cream, stirring well. Place on heat, then continue stirring to dissolve sugar. Cover pan; bring mixture to a boil; cook 1 minute or until steam inside pan has melted all sugar crystals down from the sides.
Remove cover; continue cooking without stirring over gentle heat to a soft-ball stage (235¼F), about 12 minutes. Let cool without stirring or moving until lukewarm (110¼F).
Add flavoring, nutmeats and cherries. Stir-beat with heavy spoon until candy becomes creamy and loses its gloss, about 8 minutes. Pour into a lightly greased, 8-inch square pan. Cut while still warm. Makes about 1 pound.
