    Recipe



    Serves:
    Time required: Prepare: 10 minutes Cook: 1 hour
    Difficulty: Medium to complex


    Directions

    1. In one pan warm up cream and condensed milk.

    2. In other pan, cook on high for 5 minutes corn syrup, water, sugar, and salt. Use the brush dipped in water to wipe down the sides of the pot to keep crystals from forming. Reduce heat, but keep syrup boiling. Do not stir it now. Heat to 260 degrees or a hard ball.

    3. Take off of heat and stir in butter one at a time. Then stir in cream mix.

    4. Put back on heat and bring to 248 degrees for 15 minutes.

    5. Take off of heat and stir in vanilla.

    6. Pour in and level out in an oil sprayed pan.

    7. Let cool. Take out of pan onto cutting board, and cut into sizes you want.

    8. Wrap in cut waxed paper, then twist both ends to seal.


    Serve with

    Apples, snacks, or anything you would eat candy with.
