Molasses Taffy
2 cups molasses
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoons vinegar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Combine the molasses, sugar and vinegar and cook to the light crack
stage (265 degrees) remove from heat and stir in vanilla and baking
soda. turn onto a well buttered platter and let cool until you can
handle it. Here come the fun part. You pull the taffy, kneading
and pulling until it is cream colored. Roll it into inch thick
ropes, cut with clean greased scissors in one inch pieces and wrap
each piece in waxed paper. If you have two folks pulling it back
and forth it goes faster.
The alternative to this is to cook it to the hard crack stage,
about 310 degrees. Put it in a well buttered pan and refrigerate
until totally cooled. Slam the pan on a table or counter. The
candy will shatter into delicious shards something like peanut
brittle without the peanuts.
