     Title: Homemade Candy Canes
Categories: Five, Candy
     Yield: 10 Canes

     2 c  Sugar
   1/2 c  Light corn syrup
   1/2 c  Water
   1/4 ts Cream of tartar
     1 ts Peppermint extract
     1 ts Red food coloring

 In heavy-bottomed large saucepan or small pot, combine
 first 4 ingredients and stir until sugar dissolves.

 Cook, without stirring to hard-ball stage. (265°F/130°C)

 Remove from heat and add peppermint extract. Divide into
 two portions, and add coloring to one part. Pour out
 onto buttered cookie sheets. (Pour half onto one sheet,
 then add coloring to the rest and then pour onto second
 sheet.) when it's cool enough to handle, start pulling
 each part separately. (Best done with 2 people, but if
 doing alone, go back and forth pulling each.)

 When you feel like you just can't pull anymore, form
 into ropes and twist them together. Cut into 8" lengths,
 form into the shape of candy canes, and place on lightly
 buttered platter til fully hardened.
