Fabulous homemade candy


This one is a definite keeper.

So glad I found this post Vegan "Butterfinger" Candy  It is only the second recipe for this candy I've found that doesn't use candy corn in it. The other, I tried before finding this post was a larger qty of some ingredients and following the instructions given made way thick candy which didn't have the right texture. It was much harder not as flaky. I was going make again with tweaks, but found this post and made it instead. 

The only change I made was cooking the syrup in the microwave. These turned out amazing and once enrobed in chocolate are pretty spot on. A great clone of the original. Yay! Hurray for homemade!

My photo has one pan (bottom left) of chocolate coated pecans. I will usually use up any excess chocolate coating nuts. No waste and you gain another snack.
