Title: Vanilla Taffy
Categories: Candies
Yield: 1/2 Pound
1 c Sugar
2/3 c Light corn syrup
1/2 c Water
1/4 ts Cream of tartar
1 ts Vanilla
1 tb Butter
Butter a large platter or jelly-roll pan.
Combine sugar, corn syrup, water, and cream of tartar in
medium-size heavy saucepan. Bring to boiling over medium heat,
stirring constantly.
Boil mixture without stirring until candy thermometer registers
266?F. A teaspoonful of syrup will form a hard ball when dropped
in cold water. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla and butter.
Pour onto prepared platter or pan. Let candy stand until cool
enough to handle.
Butter hands. Gather up candy; pull between hands until it becomes
satiny and light in color. Pull into large strips; twist. Cut into
1" pieces with scissors. To store, wrap each candy in plastic wrap
and place in air-tight container.
