Old Fashioned Taffy
This is one of my grandma's old recipes! It's very fun to make and you can do pretty much any flavor and any color! Be creative!!
2 cups Sugar
1 cup of water
1/2 cup of Vinegar
1 Tbsp butter
1 tsp vanilla
a pinch of baking soda
food coloring
various flavoring extracts
In a saucepan, combine sugar, water and vinegar and stir until dissolved.
Cook over moderately low heat until, when dropped from a spoon into cold water, the mixture forms threads.
Now mix in the other ingredients, flavoring and coloring to taste.
Grease a cookie sheet and pour the taffy out to cool.
Butter your fingers and make several balls once toffee is cool enough to handle.
With your fingers, pull the taffy until it is satiny smooth.
Roll into a rope shape and cut into bite-sized pieces.
Wrap individually in clear cellophane or plastic wrap.
