- Prepare the Pan: Start by greasing a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper to prevent the candy from sticking.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine molasses, sugar, butter, and vinegar over medium heat. Stir the mixture continuously until the sugar dissolves and the butter melts.
- Cooking the Candy: Once the mixture comes to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking. Use a candy thermometer to monitor the temperature. The goal is to reach the “hard crack” stage at around 300°F (150°C).
- Add Baking Soda: Carefully sprinkle baking soda into the mixture once it reaches the desired temperature. Stir quickly and watch as the mixture puffs up. This step gives the candy its distinctive airy texture.
- Flavor Enhancement: Remove the saucepan from heat and add vanilla extract. Stir well to incorporate the vanilla flavor throughout the candy.
- Pour and Cool: Immediately pour the molasses puff candy onto the prepared baking sheet. Allow it to cool completely. You can speed up the process by placing the sheet in the refrigerator.
- Break into Pieces: Once the candy has hardened, break it into bite-sized pieces. You can use a mallet or the back of a spoon to create irregular shapes, giving the candy a rustic charm.
- Enjoy the Nostalgia: Indulge in the sweet and robust flavor of Old-Fashioned Molasses Puff Candy. Share it with friends and family, and let the rich, comforting taste transport everyone to a simpler time.
