Hello im in a bit a predicament, We have been helping a stage 4 lung cancer patient and providing her with edibles, The problem is she has a hard time swallowing brownies and we are going to make some hard candies using this recipy.
Butterscotch Candy recipe
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup corn surp 1 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup butter
1/4 vanilla extract
Put sugar, corn syrup, water and salt into saucepan. Stir over low heat until sugar is dissolved. Increase heat and cook until thermometer registers 250 degrees F, firm ball stage. Add butter; cook with occasional stirring until thermometer registers 300 degrees F (brittle stage). Remove from stove; add vanilla extract; pour into buttered shallow pan, making a layer 1/4 inch deep. While warm, crease into squares with a blunt knife. When cold, break into pieces.
My questin is how much trim should we use with only a 1/3 a cup of butter going into the recipy. All the other hard candy recipys i could find involved using alcahol and other things to make an extract to go into dosages.
If anyone has worked with late stage cancer patients and has advice i would greatly aprecciat it. If you have any other recipys for something that would help them consume medicine i would also apreciat it.
sorry about the spelling. spell check wont work on this damn thing.
