Assemble these supplies:
2 cups sugar
2/3 cup dark corn syrup
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup light cream
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1 cup shredded coconut, toasted
Steps in preparation:
Combine sugar, syrup, water and cream in saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture boils. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally to "hard ball" stage, 260° F., or until mixture forms a hard ball when tested in very cold water. Add butter and coconut and continue cooking, stir-ring constantly to "soft crack" stage, 280° F., or until a small amount of mixture separates into threads which are hard but are not brittle when tested in cold water. Pour into buttered 8" square pan; when almost set, cut into squares. When cold, break apart. Makes 1 1/4 pound.
