List of Ingredients

2 cups sugar
2 cups dark corn syrup
1 cup unsalted butter
2 cups heavy cream



Recipe

Dissolve over a medium low heat in a large, heavy pan stirring until the mixture boils: 2 cups sugar, 2 cups dark corn syrup (I have used a combination of both dark and light, too), 1 cup of butter (no substitutes) and l cup of cream Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly to 240 degrees.
Remove from stove and gradually add l more cup of cream.
Return to heat and cook until 244-246 degrees.
Pour mixture at once without scraping (makes it tough) into a buttered 9x13 pan.
Cool about three hours until fairly firm.
Invert onto cutting surface and using a thin, sharp knife (I use a chef's knife) cut into one inch pieces.
Wrap in pieces of waxed paper.
