Ingredients

How to make it

  • 1. Prepare a 9-inch square pan by lining it with aluminum foil and spraying the foil with nonstick cooking spray.
  • 2. In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the condensed milk, sugar, corn syrup, and salt, and stir until combined.
  • 3. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring often. Attach a candy thermometer and boil the candy until it reaches 245 degrees, firm-ball stage. Stir frequently so that the mixture does not scorch on the bottom of the pan.
  • 4. Once it reaches the proper temperature, remove from the heat and stir in the anise extract and the food coloring, mixing until thoroughly combined.
  • 5. Pour the candy into the prepared pan. Allow to set at room temperature overnight, or in refrigerator to speed up the process.
  • 6. Cut into squares using an oiled bench cutter or kitchen shears. Wrap individual candies in waxed paper or cling-wrap to store.
