Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 teaspoon Vegetable oil
1½ cup Light brown sugar
2 cups Pure maple syrup
½ cup Whipping cream
1 tablespoon Unsalted butter

Preparation time: 10 minutes Cooking time: 10-15 minutes Yield: 4 cups 1. Lightly grease a large sheet pan with vegetable oil; set aside. Combine sugar, syrup and cream in heavy saucepan. Heat to a simmer over medium heat, slowly cooking to 244 degrees as indicated on a candy thermometer.

Remove from heat; stir in butter until melted. Pour onto prepared pan and cool to thicker consistency, 10 to 15 minutes.
