HONEY TAFFY 
2 1/3 c. sugar
2 1/3 c. honey
1 1/2 c. water
1/4 tsp. salt
2 tsp. vanilla

If you plan for a taffy pull for an evening, cook it much earlier - if too early it can be warmed up.

Combine sugar, honey, water and salt. Cook rapidly to 280 degrees (medium crack). Stir in vanilla and pour into a buttered pan to cool enough to be handled. Then pull until light. Pull the last few pulls higher, draw out into a rope about 1/2 inch in diameter. While still pliable, quickly cut into 1/2 inch lengths. (Use kitchen shears with blades rubbed with softened butter). Wrap each piece in heavy waxed paper.

Makes 2-2 1/2 pound. Note: Do not stir candy while cooking.
