    Title: Coffee-Rum Fudge
    Categories: Candies, Nuts, Dairy
    Yield: 1 1/2 pounds

    3 c Sugar
    1 c Milk
    1/2 c Light cream
    1 tb Light corn syrup
    2 ts Instant coffee powder
    ds Salt
    3 tb Butter
    1 ts Vanilla
    1/4 ts Rum flavoring
    Walnut halves

    Butter the sides of a heavy 3-qt saucepan. In this
    prepared saucepan, combine sugar, milk, light cream,
    corn syrup, coffee powder, and salt. Bring to boiling,
    stirring constantly. Cook, without stirring, to soft-
    ball stage (236ºF/113ºC), about 12 to 15 minutes. Remove
    from heat. Add butter, vanilla, and rum flavoring. Do
    not stir. Cool in saucepan to lukewarm (110ºF/43ºC).
    Beat vigorously with wooden spoon till candy begins to
    hold its shape and lose its glossy appearance, about
    10 minutes.

    Turn candy mixture into buttered 8" x 8" x 2" dish.
    With a small knife, score the surface in squares; top
    each square with a walnut half. Cover candy with clear
    plastic wrap; chill thoroughly.

    Cut through candy completely along scored lines to
    serve.

    Makes about 1 1/2 pounds.
