Category:	Category: Candy

Ingredients:	Ingredients: 4 c. sugar 1 c. white Karo© syrup ½ cake paraffin butter - size of an egg 2 envelopes Knox© unflavored gelatin ½ tsp. salt 1 tsp. vanilla

Directions:	Directions: Mix sugar and syrup with enough hot water to make a paste. Put on to cook. When mixture boils up, put in paraffin and butter. Melt gelatin in boiling water, add salt. When the mixture boils again, add gelatin mixture. Continue boiling (DO NOT STIR) until it spins a long thread (250º on a candy thermometer). Add vanilla. Pour into buttered pans. When cool enough to handle, pull.

Personal Notes:	Personal Notes: This makes quite a bit of taffy and takes A LOT of pulling so have a lot of help and divide it up. Log on waxed paper, twist paper to seal. My sister had a "hay hook" fastened to the window sill and she threw candy around it as she pulled it clear across her kitchen.
