Preparation

Step 1

In a medium size saucepan, bring water, sugar and Karo to a soft ball, 230°F on a candy thermometer.

Add butter and stir while bringing to a hard crack, 300°F on a candy thermometer.

Remove from heat and add soda, salt and cashews. Quickly pour onto non-stick foil.

You will need to pull it with tongs to get a thin texture. Let cool and break into pieces.
