Ingredients
-
3 c. sugar
1 c. half and half
3 Tbsp. light corn syrup

Preparation
-
About 1 1/2 hours before serving or day ahead:
In 5-quart glass or glass-ceramic casserole, combine sugar, half and half, syrup and salt.
Cook on High 5 to 7 minutes until mixture comes to a full boil, stirring occasionally.
Set microwave-safe candy thermometer in place.
Continue to cook on High 7 to 10 minutes or until temperature reaches 240\u00b0 or soft ball stage (when a small amount of mixture dropped into a bowl of cold water forms a soft ball that flattens on removal from water).
