Cashew Crickle Candy

2 cups sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup water
3 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups salted cashews

In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, corn syrup and water. Bring to a boil,
stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved. Cook, without stirring, over
medium heat until a candy thermometer reads 300° (hard-crack stage).
Remove from the heat; stir in butter, vanilla and baking soda. Add cashews. Pour
into a buttered 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. pan. Cool; break into pieces.

Yield: about 2 pounds.
