2 cupfuls brown sugar
4 tablespoonfuls Crisco
1 teaspoonful vanilla extract
Pinch cream of tartar

Put sugar and water into saucepan; stir occasionally until it boils;
then add cream of tartar. Put cover on pan and boil five minutes, add
Crisco and salt and boil until, when tried in cold water it will snap,
