Recipe Introduction


No one will have to dig to the bottom of the bowl to find the cashews in this tasty toffee-like candy.

Yield: 2 dozen pieces (1 1/4 pounds)


List of Ingredients




1 cup sugar
1 cup LAND O LAKES® Butter
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 1/2 cups salted cashew pieces*

Recipe



Combine sugar, butter and corn syrup in 2-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until butter is melted and mixture comes to a boil (9 to 11 minutes). Reduce heat to medium-low; cook, stirring occasionally, until candy thermometer reaches 310°F or small amount of mixture dropped into ice water forms brittle strands (40 to 50 minutes). Remove from heat; stir in cashews.

Spread to 1/4-inch thickness on aluminum foil-lined 15x10x1-inch jelly-roll pan. Cool completely; break into pieces.

*Substitute 1 1/2 cups your favorite salted nuts.
