2 tbsp. butter (soft)
1 tbsp. light corn syrup
1/2 tsp. vanilla
4 little pinches salt
1 c. confectioners sugar

Rub butter over sides of a bowl; put the corn syrup in the bowl. Add vanilla and the salt; stir and stir, then add all of powdered sugar. Stir again, then rest, stir again. After the sugar is all mixed up, take a handful and squeeze; do it again and again.

Dump everything on a cutting board. Pound it. Squeeze it. Roll it. Take a small piece and roll it between your hands to make a ball as big as a walnut. Put in on a dish and make more balls until you have used the mixture all up.

Cover the candy with plastic wrap. Put it in the refrigerator for about 1 hour or until chilled. It tastes better cold!

Can ask kids questions about the texture as they are making it. Is the butter soft? How does the mixture feel? Smooth?
