Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1 1/2 c Sugar 1 tb Vinegar, optional
1/2 c Syrup, corn, light 1/8 ts Salt
1/2 c Milk 1 1/4 c Coconut, shredded, moist
1/4 c Molasses 3 tb Butter

Combine sugar, corn syrup, milk, molasses vinegar (if using) and
salt in a heavy pan. Stir over medium heat until the sugar is
dissolved. Bring to a boil and cook, covered, for about 3 minutes
until the steam has washed down from the sides of the pan any
crystals that may have formed.

Uncover and cook slowly to the soft-ball stage (238 F. on candy
thermometer) without stirring. Remove from heat and stir in shredded
coconut and butter. Pour candy on to a buttered platter. When cool
enough to handle, shape into small balls and place them on foil to
dry.

Yield: about 1 1/2 pounds of candy
