Directions:
Cut chocolate and melt over slow fire (don't burn).
When chocolate is melted take from fire and add sugar, karo, and cream - stir lightly.
Put back on medium fire after it comes to good boil lower fire and stir slowly.
When syrup begins to thicken (test by dropping a drop or two in a cup of cold water (not ice water) when drop seems to stay together and doesn't spread) remove from fire.
Add vanilla and oleo, beat good, it will take quite a while, just before taking it up at nuts.

Personal Notes:
From MeMe:
Sometimes I will beat to long and candy will begin to harden as I pour and other times it will take longer to happen. Be sure your ball of syrup stays together or your candy will not harden. After you make it a time or two you can judge how it looks while beating syrup. I have better luck by making 1 batch at a time. My pan is 9 by 9.
