Directions:
There are no directions as to how long to boil this recipe, but since taffy is the consistency of caramels, I would suggest to a firm ball. Boil until a drop of mixture in cold water forms the firmness you would want the finished product.

Personal Notes:
This recipe has Mom's maiden name only recorded, which means she copied it before 1933.
