Old-Fashioned Pull TaffyYour parents MUST help with this one! 2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup light Karo syrup
1/2 cup water
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
Food coloring, if desired
Flavoring desired Combine sugar, Karo® syrup, water and cream of tartar. Place over heat. Stir until sugar dissolves. Cook, without stirring, to 265 degrees on candy thermometer. Remove from heat; add coloring and flavoring if desired. Pour on greased platter or pie pan. Cool until easily handled. Pull into ropes until chalky and porous. Break or cut into bite-size pieces with scissors. This makes a mess, but is a lot of fun for everyone involved. Greased hands make pulling easier. |
