Brown Sugar Butterscotch image

This is really yummy, I used to make it for Christmas all the time but haven't in recent years. One drawback is that the finished candy becomes sticky if it isn't kept refrigerated and then eaten as soon as possible, so I don't recommend for small children.

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cup(s) brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4 cup(s) light corn syrup

2 tablespoon(s) water
2 tablespoon(s) vinegar

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in 2-quart saucepan; mix well.
  • Place over medium heat and cook to 300 (hard crack stage). Stir occasionally to prevent scortching.
