Raspberry Cordials

6 C sugar
2 TBL karo syrup
1 1/2 c whipping cream
1/3 c milk
pinch of salt

Stir all ingredients well.  Bring to boil over med heat. cook to 225-230 F (without stirring).  Be sure to use cane sugar NOT beet sugar as it will not have the same chemical reaction.

Once cooked pour onto granite slab - Allow to cool completely.  Work with a putty knife until fondant turns.  Once turned put in fridge to set up.  Wrap a small piece of fondant around a frozen raspberry and dip in chocolate. Use cornstarch so it fondant doesn't stick to your hands.

My favorite dipping chocolate is Nantucket.  I buy it at Baker's Cash and Carry in Murray.

Makes about 120 candies.
