Made this as dessert for our meal we have the week before Easter - a meal like Jesus would eat. Found in The Friend. The kids thought it was way cool. And it tasted good too. It really looks like a honeycomb inside when you break it. I did it in the microwave. Don't have a candy thermometer (sp) so I think I might have cooked it a little too long. I did like 3 minutes, stir and then maybe another 2 minutes.
The scriptures say that Jesus ate honeycomb after He was resurrected (see Luke 24:42). This honey-flavored candy can be a sweet reminder of the joy of Easter. Remember to get an adult’s help when cooking.
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons water
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1. Grease a cookie sheet.
- 2. Combine sugar, honey, and water in saucepan. Simmer over high heat without stirring until the syrup looks like caramel and reaches 300°F (150°C).
- 3. Remove pan from heat and mix baking soda into the syrup. The syrup will foam up. Stir just long enough to mix the ingredients.
- 4. Pour mixture onto baking sheet. Do not spread.
- 5. Allow the candy to cool, then break into pieces and enjoy!
