2 c. sugar
1/2 tumbler of water (I'm guessing 4-6 ounces)
1 tsp. vinegar
1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
Butter (size of a walnut)
Vanilla
Boil until brittle when dropped in cold water (soft crack?). when cooling, grease hands well with shortening or butter and pull.
Note: a fun thing to try, but you will probably only do it once.
