Comment préparer Date Loaf Candy

  1. Lightly grease a baking sheet and have a clean, damp kitchen towel ready.
  2. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine 2 cups granulated sugar, 1/2 cup light corn syrup, and 1/2 cup water.
  3. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil. After 3 minutes of boiling, drop a small spoonful of the mixture into a bowl of ice water. If it forms a soft ball (it should hold its shape when you take it out of the water but be pliable), proceed to step 4. If not, continue boiling and test again in a minute.
  4. Once the soft-ball stage is reached, remove the pan from the heat.
  5. Stir in 1 cup pitted dates (chopped or whole – your choice!) until melted and well combined.
  6. Stir in 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (or your favorite nuts!).
  7. Pour the mixture onto the prepared damp kitchen towel. Quickly shape it into a log (about 12 inches long and 2 inches wide).
  8. Let the candy cool completely on the towel.
  9. Once completely cool, transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 1 hour to firm up.
  10. Once chilled, cut into thin slices and enjoy this sweet piece of history!
