    | 1. In a large pot, combine brown sugar, corn syrup, water and salt. | 2. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring, until sugar is dissolved. | 3. Do not let this come to a boil until sugar has completely dissolved. | 4. Turn the heat up a bit and continue cooking to the hard ball stage (250F). | 5. Add butter and stir to keep from scorching. | 6. Cook until mixture will separate into hard but not brittle strands (270F) when tested in cold water. | 7. Stir in the vanilla. | 8. Pour candy in a thin sheet onto a greased slab. | 9. (I don't have a slab. I turn a large metal baking pan upside down and grease the bottom- works great!). | 10. Mark into squares while still warm, creasing it deeply. | 11. Break into pieces as soon as it is cool. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
