Using a candy thermometer cook to 250 degrees or SOFT CRACK. Oil is added when all the other ingredients have reached the proper temperature. Add red food coloring and stir. DO NOT LET THE HOT STEAM get in your face. This is really strong smelling!
Pour out on a sheet pan that has been buttered. Let cool and crack with a knife, or if you choose you can cut it WARM with kitchen shears.
Put in a plastic bag with about half a cup of powdered sugar. Shake to coat. Sift to remove excess powdered sugar. Makes a great gift in a decorative jar.
