List of Ingredients




1 C sugar
1 C dark corn syrup
1 T vinegar
1 T baking soda



Recipe



Combine sugar, syrup and vinegar in a 2 qt. bowl. Cover and microwave on High for 3 minutes. Stir well. Then, microwave uncovered for 4 1/2 to 10 minutes until thickened. Test by dropping a small amount into cold water. If it is not brittle, microwave a little longer. I do mine for 8 minutes. Add baking soda and stir well. The mixture will foam up. Pour into a buttered 9 in. sq. pan. Let stand until firm. Remove from pan and break into pieces. You can also cover with a layer of melted chocolate chips if desired. Melt them in the microwave with a small amount of butter or shortening for 1-2 minutes on medium or medium high.
