Ingredients:

  • 1-1/2 tsp butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 2 cups sugar
  • red food coloring
  • 2 to 3 tbsp confectioners' sugar

Directions:

  1. Butter an 8-in. square dish with 1-1/2 teaspoons butter; set aside. In a large heavy saucepan, combine the water, corn syrup and sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook for 3 minutes to dissolve any sugar crystals.
  2. Uncover; cook over medium-high heat, without stirring, until a candy thermometer reads 300° (hard-crack stage). Remove from the heat; stir in extract and food coloring.
  3. Pour into prepared dish. Using a sharp knife, score into 3/4-in. squares. Cool. Separate into squares, using a sharp knife if necessary. Place confectioners' sugar in a pan; add candy and roll until coated. Brush off excess sugar with a pastry brush.
  4. Store at room temperature in an airtight container. Yield: about 1 pound (about 8 dozen).
