• Prep Time:
  5 min
• Cook Time:
  15 min
• Ready Time:
  20 min

Ingredients

• one cup caster sugar
• one cup corn syrup
• teaspoon white vinegar
• 1 tablespoon baking soda

Directions

You will want a Candy Thermometer for this one to get it right and remember DON’T EVER TOUCH THE HOT SUGAR. You will have pain for days so please be very careful making this.

Use a large pot as you are going to need some room for the sugar to rise when you add the baking soda I would say at least 4 inch of space from the ingredients in the bottom of the  pot. Also lightly butter a baking sheet and have it on stand by as this is where the toffee will end up.

Start by combining the sugar, corn syrup and vinegar and on a medium heat stirring until it the sugar is dissolved. Continue to cook until the temp reaches 300 degrees and let cook for ten min at that temp.

Take off the heat and quickly stir in the baking soda, the sugar will rise and get foamy now pour onto your baking sheet and do not touch it. Let cool for 30 min and break into pieces.

That’s it easy, fun and delicious!
