CANDY TEMPS RECIPES

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, stir together the white sugar, corn syrup, and water. Cook, stirring, over medium heat until sugar dissolves, then bring to a boil. Without stirring, heat to 300 to 310 degrees F (149 to 154 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms hard, brittle threads.
• Remove from heat and stir in flavored extract and food coloring, if desired. Pour onto a greased cookie sheet, and dust the top with confectioners' sugar. Let cool, and break into pieces. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Line a 10x15-inch pan with aluminum foil and lightly grease.
• Place the saltine crackers on the cookie sheet to cover the entire pan in 1 layer of crackers. 
• Melt together the butter and sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
• Once the butter is melted, bring to a boil for 3 minutes while stirring constantly.
• Carefully pour the mixture over the crackers. Spread it overtop so that all of the crackers are covered.
• Bake in the oven for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool for 5 minutes.
• Add the chocolate to a medium heatproof bowl. Microwave on medium power for 1-minute bursts, stirring between each. When the chocolate is almost melted, stir until smooth. 
• Spoon the chocolate over the crackers, and spread it smooth to completely cover the pan. Decorate with sprinkles. 
• Let the toffee harden until the chocolate is set. Either at room temperature or in the fridge.
• Once completely hardened, remove from the pan peel the aluminum foil off. Break/"crack" it into pieces.
• Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or in the fridge for 10 days.
