2 1/2 cups sugar
3/4 cup whole milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
3 -4 drops food coloring (optional)
Directions:
1. Mix all the ingredients in a large saucepan.
2. On medium heat, keep stirring till the mixture turns thick.
3. Spread it onto a greased rectangular tray and allow to cool and set.
4. Once it turns firm, use a butter knife to cut into cubes.
5. You may store it in an air tight container in the fridge so that it remains hard.
