Cream Candy

Submitted by Roy Deemer of Minford, Ohio

Ingredients:

• 3 cups sugar
• 1 Tbsp. baking powder
• 2 Tbsp. butter
• 1 cup hot water
• Food coloring and candy flavoring as desired

Directions:

1. Cook all ingredients without stirring to soft crackle, 261°.
2. Pour on marble top if possible for best results; or greased tray until cool.
3. Add flavoring and coloring if desired.
4. Pull candy until creamy. Lay out like taffy.

Notice: If you pull too long, it will get hard in your hands; not long enough, it will not get hard.
