Taffy - Old Fashioned
 
 
2 cups    Sugar  
1/2 cups    Light Karo syrup  
1/2 cups    Water  
1/4 tsp    Cream of tarter  
  Food coloring, opt  
  Flavoring, opt  
 
1 Combine sugar, syrup, water and tartar. Place over heat. Stir until sugar dissolves. Cook, without stirring, to 265°. Remove from heat; add coloring and flavoring if desired. Pour on greased platter or pie pan. Cool until easily handled.
2 Pull into ropes until chalky and porous. Break or cut into bite-size pieces with scissors.
3 This makes a mess, but is a lot of fun for everyone involved. Greased hands make pulling easier.
