Instructions
- Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. In a heavy-bottomed 3-quart saucepan, mix sugar and corn syrup. Cook over medium heat and stir occasionally until temperature reaches 275 degrees on a candy thermometer (approx. 10 minutes). Stir in the chopped nuts; continue cooking and stirring occasionally for 5–7 minutes until the temperature reaches 305 degrees (hard crack stage). Remove from heat.
- Quickly stir in the extracts, baking soda, and coconut. Pour mixture onto prepared baking sheet, spreading it out to the edges with a greased wooden spoon or spatula. Cool completely. Loosen from baking sheet and break into pieces. Store in an airtight container for 2–3 weeks.
