INGREDIENTS:
1 cup white sugar
1/4 cup light corn syrup
2/3 cup water
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons almond extract
1/2 cup sliced almonds
10 drops green food coloring
DIRECTIONS:
Butter one 8 inch square pan; set aside.
In a 2 quart saucepan over medium heat, combine the
sugar, corn syrup, water, butter, cornstarch and salt.
Mix together well and bring to a boil. Heat without
stirring until a candy thermometer reads 250 degrees
F (120 degrees C). Remove from heat; stir in vanilla,
almond extract, almonds and food color. Pour into pan.
Let stand until
cool enough to handle. (Taffy should be lukewarm in
center as well as at the edges.) At this point, fold,
double and pull the taffy until it is light in color
and stiff. Butter hands lightly
if taffy begins to stick. Cut taffy into pieces with
scissors and wrap the pieces with plastic wrap to maintain
shape.
