My Christmas agenda for many years has included a list of homemade candies that I pass on to my friends with pride. The legacy is enriched by memories of a dear friend, now departed, who taught me some of the tricks of candy-making. Gladly I share with you so you can build a legacy of your own.
Fudge
- 2 cups sugar
- 1/4 cup dry cocoa
- 1 cup half and half or light cream
- 2 tablespoons white syrup
- 2 tablespoons of butter
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla
- Dash salt
- ½ cup walnuts
Butter the sides of a heavy pan and add the ingredients. Try to avoid getting the syrup on the upper parts of the pan. Unmelted sugar crystals can “inoculate” the syrup and cause your candy to be sugary. Cook over medium heat until a few drops of syrup put into cold water hold a firm shape. (236 Degrees on a candy thermometer that has been adjusted to your altitude.)
Pour the syrup into a bowl. Add two tablespoons of butter and a teaspoon of vanilla. Let cool until lukewarm (110 degrees). Beat until it begins to lose its gloss. Add ½ cup walnuts if desired. Pour onto a buttered surface to set.

Buttery Peanut Brittle
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 cup white syrup
- ½ cup water
- 1 2/3 cubes of butter
- 1 ½ cups of raw Spanish peanuts
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda
Stir together in a heavy frying pan. Cook until the sugar is fully melted and the syrup is frothy. Add 1 2/3 cubes of butter and continue cooking until the syrup begins to turn light brown. Add 1 ½ cups of raw Spanish peanuts at 280 degrees and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the syrup is a good tan color, (hard crack stage or 305 Degrees on a candy thermometer). Be careful of overcooking at this stage. When it gets this hot, the syrup tends to over-brown quickly. Remove from heat. Add 1 teaspoon of baking soda and stir. The syrup will become “airy,” making a nice crunchy candy. Pour onto a buttered, flat surface.
