    Title: Salt Water Taffy
    Categories: Candy, Snacks
    Yield: 3 servings

    1 1/2 c Brown sugar
    1/2 c Corn syrup
    3 tb Butter
    1/2 c Water
    1 1/2 ts Salt
    1/2 tg Glycerine
    1 1/2 ts Vanilla

    Put brown sugar, corn syrup, butter and water into a
    saucepan or iron kettle. Bring to a boil, stirring
    occasionally, until mixture reaches 256ºF or until it
    forms a hard ball when tested in cold water.

    Add salt and glycerine. Pour onto a greased marble slab
    and when cool enough to handle (be careful-hot sugar
    burns) pull until light in color.

    Add vanilla while pulling. Pull out in round sticks the
    size of kisses. Lightly oil a scissors with vegetable
    oil or spray. Cut pieces 3/4" in length. Roll up in
    waxed paper and twist ends.
