I have not tried fixing this yet, but I will at some point once my candymaking skills have improved. I really just like to tell people about it due to the novelty value! It is a recipe that my great grandmother, Winnifred (Bornholdt) Siewert Thiele, had in one of her handwritten recipe notebooks. She was of German ancestry and lived in Minnesota, South Dakota, and Montana. Ingredients:
2 cups white sugar |
1 cup brown sugar |
3 tablespoons butter |
1/2 cup milk or 1/2 cup water |
1/2 cup cooked beef, finely ground |
1/2 cup chopped nuts |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
Directions:
1. Combine first five ingredients.
2. Cook to soft ball stage.
3. Cool to lukewarm.
4. Beat until creamy.
5. Add vanilla and nuts.
6. Butter 8 x8 pan and pour in mixture.
7. Cut into 1 x2 pieces.
8. Variation: Add 1 1/2 squares of chocolate without stirring when pan has been removed from stove. Chocolate melts as candy cools.
