CHRISTMAS HARD CANDY
When you make a batch of this beautiful jewel-toned candy, your whole house fills with the wonderful scent of mint or cinnamon. My mom always makes this candy, and people request it every year. She puts it in clear jars with a holiday calico fabric on the lid. Now I've started making it, too.-Jane Holman, Moultrie, Georgi

- In a 3.5 quart sauce pan fitted with a candy thermometer, heat sugar, corn syrup and water together over medium heat, stirring occasionally until sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. While sugar mixture is heating, prepare a baking sheet by lining it with heavy-duty foil and spraying with non stick cooking spray.
- Increase heat to high and let candy mixture come to a boil until it reaches 300 degrees F (hard crack stage) on a candy thermometer. Remove from heat and stir in food coloring and cinnamon oil. Keep face away from steam and handle cinnamon oil carefully, it can irritate skin with direct contact.
- Immediately pour candy mixture onto foil lined baking sheet and let cool completely. Once cooled, use kitchen mallet or heavy bottomed measuring cup to break up pieces. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
CHRISTMAS HARD CANDY
This is made each year and it is my granddaughter's favorite time. We get together and have several pots going at different intervals so we are going all the time. This past year my husband got involved. We make seven or eight kinds each year. You have to use the oil and not just flavoring. They can be purchased in a candy store or on-line. This candy is delicious. The recipe below is for one batch of one flavor. So, if you want many flavors, you make many batches but you will need at least two people and of course it is more fun with two. Be careful you don't burn your fingers. This candy makes a great gift.

Steps:
- Put a couple of LIGHTLY oiled and then wiped out, 10" frying pan (metal--not cast iron) in the freezer for 20 minutes or so before starting the candy (one for each batch).
- Put the confectioners sugar in a bowl and put on the table where you will be working with the candy.
- Put the Karo syrup, sugar, and water in a large saucepan; bring it to a boil and cook over medium heat till thermometer reaches 300F to 305F (hard crack stage).
- Immediately take off the stove and add the flavoring and the food coloring.
- Pour into the cold pans and wait till it starts to set; it will cool around the edges first.
- When it does, start picking up and snipping with scissors to desired size.
- Put into the confectioners sugar and leave there, tossing every so often, till you are done.
- When that particular flavor is done, put the candy in a sifter and sift the confectioners sugar off and put into a clean bowl; save this sugar for the next batch.
- AMOUNT OF OIL FLAVORING THAT I USE:.
- cinnamon--scant 1/2 teaspoon (deep red); lemon--full 1/2 teaspoon (yellow); anise--full 1/2 teaspoon (blue); lime--full 1/2 teaspoon (light green); spearmint--exactly 1/2 teaspoon (dark green); orange--full 1/2 teaspoon (medium orange); clove--level 1/4 teaspoon (this flavor is very strong--no color).

Steps:
- Line a large cookie sheet with a 1 inch lip with foil.
- Butter the foil and set pan aside.
- Add water, sugar, corn syrup and food coloring to large heavy pan and stir until well mixed.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat stirring occasionally.
- Cover pan with lid and cook for 3 minutes (very important, this will dissolve the sugar crystals that may form on the sides of the pan)
- Take lid off pan and cook on medium-high heat, without stirring until a candy thermometer reaches 300°F (hard crack stage), about 25 minutes. (Be patient, don't turn up heat to speed this up as it can go from cooking to burning in a second and the whole batch would be ruined).
- Remove candy from heat stir in cinnamon oil (house will spell like cinnamon for days unless you open windows before you do this step, also be careful not to have your face right over the the pot).
- Quickly pour into prepared pan.
- Cool completely (about 45 minutes).
- Cover with a piece of plastic wrap and use a hammer to get pieces small enough to get into a large zip top bag, then smash inside the bag until they are bite sized.
- Add powdered sugar to bag and shake to coat all sides (note, check for holes in bag first, sometimes the candy punctures the bag).
- Enjoy.
