Butterscotch brittle

1 batch

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 cups C&H Golden Brown Sugar
1 cup Light corn syrup
¼ cup Water
¼ teaspoon Salt
¼ cup Butter or margarine

Directions

Combine sugar, syrup, water, and salt in a 3-quart saucepan. Slowly bring to a boil, stirring constantly until sugar completely dissolves, then frequently to prevent burning. Boil to 285 degrees (soft-crack stage). Add butter and continue to cook, stirring constantly until temperature reaches 295 degree (hard-crack stage).

Remove from heat; let set a minute until bubbling stops. Pour into a well-buttered 13x9-inch pan. Cool, then break into pieces. Makes about 1-½ pounds.
