Ingredients

Directions

Butter the sides of a heavy 2-quart saucepan. Place the sugar, salt, and corn syrup, milk, and butter in saucepan. Over medium heat, stir mixture constantly with a wooden spoon until sugars have dissolved and mixture comes to a boil. Continue to cook to a soft ball stage, approximately 236 degrees F on a candy thermometer. If you do a cold water test, the ball of candy will flatten when you take it out of the water. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes.

Add the vanilla and nuts, and beat with a spoon by hand for approximately 2 minutes or until candy is slightly thick and begins to lose its gloss. Quickly drop heaping tablespoons onto waxed paper. If the candy becomes stiff, add a few drops of hot water.

    OMG! These are to die for! They did set up a bit fast, so I returned them to the heat, and added a little (maybe 2 tsp? hot water and stirred like crazy! They came out wonderfully! I used light corn syrup cuz that's what I had, but it worked just fine! Thanks Paula Deen!

    These ended up tasting just like the ones my Mom made for us when I was a child! Awesome! These will probably end up in our homemade gift boxes that we give to friends and family this year.

    The steps are surprisingly easy! The candy thermometer makes life easier, or course, but they could be made without it.
