Ingredients
  • 1 cup salted butter
  • 1 cup white sugar ( I use Dixie Crystals)

Instructions
  1. Add the butter to a 2 1/2 quart heavy bottomed pan.
  2. When the butter is melted add the sugar and corn syrup.
  3. Cook over medium heat for about 8 minutes, the mixture needs to reach 300 degrees. Stir constantly while it is cooking so that it doesn't scorch on the bottom of the pan.
