Honey Candy:
Ingredients:2 cups melted honey (I always use Cox's Honey)
1 cup cream
1 cup sugar
butter (or butter-flavored cooking spray)
Directions:
Combine the first 3 ingredients and cook slowly on medium heat until it forms a hard ball when you drop it into ice water. It took me about an hour. As the mixture gets close to being done, the bubbles from the boil will get a lot smaller and closer together. Pour the mixture onto a buttered cooking sheet. When cooled, pull with buttered hands. Stretch, twist and pull until firm (this is the fun part!
) and then form into long ropes and place on waxed paper. Cut into bite size pieces. If you want, you can roll them in powdered sugar and wrap them in wax paper.

Evelyn's Old Fashioned Honey Candy Recipe
by Evelyn Worthington
2 C sugar
1 C softened honey*
1 C Heavy Cream
1/2 C Real Butter
Mix in a 4 quarter pan until it boils. Then turn the stove down and cook to a hard-ball stage. You can test for this by dropping a bit of the candy syrup into ice water - it needs to hold it's shape but is still pliable. I've also noticed the bubbles get smaller and closer together as the candy approaches the hard-ball stage.
Take off the stove, add 1/2 tsp soda; add nuts if you want to. Pour into a well buttered pan.
Let it cool well.
Turn upside down on a board or wax paper and cut it into bite size squares (about 1 1/2 inches).
You can even sprinkle with powdered sugar before wrapping them in 5x5 cellophane caramel papers. I get mine from Gygi in SLC, Utah. It saves a ton of time cutting those little buggers up.
* you can soften raw honey by bringing water in a pot to a boil. Once it's boiling, turn off the heat, place a jar lid on the bottom of the pot and place the tub of honey on to the jar lid. If the honey doesn't completely soften the first time, repeat the process. Just be sure you are not boiling or cooking the honey. It needs to melt slowly using a medium low heat.
