1 cup Karo syrup
1 cup sugar

Nicki’s Notes:

My mother made these all the time when I was growing up. They are by far my favorite of her holiday candies. I used to help her make and roll them out every year just before Christmas. This recipe was used by my grandmother when she was a lunchroom lady at Minor High School.

A tip: coat your hands with butter before rolling to help keep the mix from sticking to your hands and fingers!
