So simple!January 27, 2009By southernsophisticate
"I absolutely love this recipe. In a matter of 10 minutes you can have ready to eat candy -- much faster than going to the store. I do recommend adding just a *pinch* of salt while the candy is cooking. Makes a wonderful icing for coffee cake also."
