Famous Honey Candy

This has been a long-standing tradition in the Dopp home to make Honey Candy during the holidays. Here is the recipe.

2 cups sugar
1 cup honey
1 cup cream
dash of salt

Prepare wax paper pieces to roll the candy into. A cutting board
works well for this if you have one.

Cook on medium heat, stirring until the temperature reaches 285
degrees. Once you reach the temperature, poor the mixture onto a
liberally greased cookie sheet or candy stone if yo have one. We fold the
mixture back into itself while we allow it to cool enough to be
handled. Once it can be handled (will still be very warm), grease your hands with butter and stretch and fold it back into itself. Continue to do this as quick as possible until the color changes to almost white and it begins to harden. At this point, you need to stretch it into a long single tube about 1/2 inch in diameter so you can cut it into bite size pieces and wrap them into the wax paper.
