Ingredients
White sugar (3 3/4 cups)
Confectioners' sugar for dusting (1/2)
Water (1 cup)
Light corn syrup (1 ½)
Orange or some other flavored extract (1/2)
Food coloring (1/2)-optional
Method
To begin with, the recipe for hard candy would need require a saucepan of medium size then must put white sugar, corn syrup and water and stir these. Now keep cooking and stirring up until the time sugar gets dissolved and starts boiling. But ensure that you cook it over a medium heat. Now once it starts getting boiled, keep heating, but without stirring it from 300 to 310 degrees F (149 to 154 degrees C) and keep heating until the little bit of syrup dropped in cold water starts forming hard and brittle threads. Then take it out of heat and add the flavored extract and food coloring too if you want. Next thing is putting a greased cookie sheet, and dusting it with the confectioners' sugar. Then hand it over to cool after which break up into pieces. Ensure you keep the candy in a airtight container.
