I tried this twice and there was no way it was going to turn creamy. Softball stage on my thermometer is 240. I really like the ingredients, so any help would be appreciated. I followed the directions exactly.

Suzzzze I registered to this site just to thank you for this candy recipe! I’ve been searching the web for a cooked cream center recipe like this one! I make it now with some brown sugar and make my version on Bordeau chocolates like See’s candy. Now, if I can only learn how to dip chocolates. . .

For a mint center you would add 1 1/2 teaspoons of mint flavoring and 1/2 cup of granulated sugar. For mint chocolate center I would add 1 1/2 teaspoons mint flavoring and 1/3 cup cocoa. These mint variations tasted great dipped in dark chocolate

Here in the states a standard measurement for butter is one stick or cube and that equals 1/2 cup. They come in packs of 4 and that equals 1 pound or 2 cups. Hope that helps!

Hi
This recipe sounds wonderful! Please tell me though, how much is a cube of butter? Your recipe calls for 1/3 of a cube… We don’t have this measurement here in the UK. I googled it (my first port of call for most things I’m ashamed to admit) but got conflicting answers. Thanks!
