Vinegar Taffy

2 cups sugar
1/8 tsp. cream of tartar
2 tbsp. butter
½ cup vinegar
Food coloring

Mix all ingredients in medium size pot and cook on low heat until temperature reaches 250 degrees. Stirring sparingly. Pour into a 9x13 casserole dish, that is either buttered or sprayed with Pam. Let cool until able to handle. Then divide into strips and pull until shiny. Cut into bite-size pieces and wrap in wax paper.


I use to make this as a kid all the time. It is a great party favor or treat for friends at Christmas time! Much more fun to do with your kids and husband because they can help with the wrapping and pulling! If you do it by yourself, be prepared for it to take some time!
