3 c. sugar
1 1/2 c. heavy cream
1 lump butter (walnut size)
1 c. nuts
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tbsp. vinegar

Let sugar, cream and butter boil up and then add vinegar and stir constantly until it forms a soft ball. Remove from fire and let stand until cold. Add nuts and vanilla. Then have a plate ready (not greased) and lift up candy into your hands and mix until it falls on plate (15 minutes). Be sure to cook this in a granite pan because aluminum makes the candy turns dark.
