List of Ingredients
3 cups granulated sugar
1 cup water
1 cup white corn syrup
1 tablespoon extract (flavor desired)
Food coloring
Recipe
Combine sugar, water and syrup into heavy saucepan. Set candy thermometer on pan. Stir constantly. When candy thermometer reaches 300 degrees F (hard crack), add in the flavoring and food coloring (only a few drops). Stir in and immediately pour into buttered 9 x 12-inch pan (depending on how thick you want the pieces of candy). Let stand. Mixture will harden. Make sure it is completely hard before going on to next step.
Cover the pan with plastic wrap. Pick pan up to about waist level (you may want to take pan outside and do this). Drop the pan onto the floor. The candy should break into several pieces resembling stained glass windows.
