Instructions

1
Line jelly roll pan with parchment on the bottom and sides and set aside. Assemble all ingredients and your tools. In a large, heavy saucepan, combine the butter, sugar, water, and corn syrup. Turn the heat to medium and use a pastry brush dipped in cool water to wash down the sides of the pan to ensure that there's not sugar stuck to the edges. Once the butter and sugar melt and the mixture begins to bubble, place the thermometer in the pot and cook until the temperature reaches 300°F.
