Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup hot water
1/3 cup light corn syrup
2 egg whites
1 tsp peppermint extract
1/4 cup of finely crushed candy cane
3 drops red food coloring

Directions:

In a large (about 1 gallon) pot mix together the sugar, salt, water and corn syrup.
Cook to a boil and 250 degrees or hard ball stage. You can stir as it somes to a boil of just once in awhile as it comes to a boil. I've never had a problem doing it either way.
While this mixture is boiling beat the egg whites to stiff peaks in your mixer.
When your boiling sugar mixture is ready very very slowly pour and mix it into the egg mixture in a slow stream on medium speed until it is all inches.
Let this mix for two mintues and then bring the speed down to slow and add it the extract and food coloring.
Continue mixing and a medium high speed until the candy starts to lose it's gloss and thicken up.
Turn off mixer and drop spoonfuls onto wax paper or a greased surface.
