Honey Candy

Honey Candy

 
1 C cream
1 C honey
1 C sugar

Boil together to soft crack stage (or hard crack if you like it harder).  Pour into a buttered cake pan.  When cool enough to handle, but still quite hot (the hotter the better, the longer you can pull it.), pull until lighter (the lighter the better) and glossy.  When you can't pull it any longer, stretch out on greased counter top and cut into pieces.  Wrap in wax paper, or toss with powdered sugar.
**16 minutes and 30 seconds in my microwave in an 8 C pyrex bowl is perfect!

**Every Christmas we waited for this special treat! Mom always made it when we were at school so we never really knew if we were getting any. It was guarded like a priceless treasure! It's so delicious how it enters your mouth hard and slowly melts into a creamy, sweet morsel! Now I make a couple batches and take it in the car while we look at Christmas lights. I always had a hard time waiting for Christmas morning!
