Instructions

  1. Combine syrup, sugar and butter in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring with a wooden spoon until sugar dissolves completely.
  2. Simmer until syrup reaches 270 degrees on a candy thermometer. This can also be judged by dropping a little of the syrup in icy cold water – it will separate into threads, but not break easily.
  3. Remove from heat, stir in baking soda, vanilla, coconut and nuts. Turn out onto a greased baking sheet and spread quickly. Sprinkle with salt.
  4. When cool enough to handle, break or cut into bite-sized chunks.
  5. Makes about 36 pieces.
