Directions: |
Directions:1. Put all ingredients in a large skillet.
2. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
3. Over medium heat boil to string stage when dropped into cold water. (Caution: do not over cook or you won't be able to pull it)
4. Pour onto a greased cookie sheet.
5. Butter hands very well. Pull taffy as soon as you can handle it (2 minutes). Pull off a handful, pull hard and quickly - speed is important. Keep buttering hands. Pull until candy is white and no longer pliable.
6. Shape into a rope about 1/2 inch thick and place on another greased cookie sheet. When taffy is all pulled, cut into 1 inch lengths with buttered scissors. If it's too hard to cut (either due to over cooking or not enough fast pullers), crack into pieces. |

Notes: Fun project for a large group of people. Don't try it alone - you have to be quick to get it all pulled before it cools. We had great fun doing this with our mom when we were kids.
