constantly until sugar dissolves. Increase heat and do not stir during rest of cooking. When syrup reaches 265 deg., remove
from heat. Add butter and stir gently. Pour onto large buttered platter. Sprinkle with vanilla (1 teaspoon) after it becomes
cool. If you want, you may also add color at this time. Flavor and color will work through when pulled. Pull until
