½ cup honey

¼ cup corn syrup
½ teaspoon almond or vanilla extract

⅛ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda

INSTRUCTIONS

1 Line a 9” x 13” baking dish with parchment paper, making sure the
edges of the paper extend at least 2 inches above the pan. Set

aside.

2 Add the granulated sugar to the center of a medium saucepan.

Pour the honey, corn syrup, extract, and salt over the sugar. Place
