2 teaspoons vanilla or almond extract
2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
1/2 cup chopped nuts

Angel Candy II

Ingredients:
1 cup sugar
1 cup dark corn syrup
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 tablespoon baking soda

In large heavy pot, combine sugar, syrup and vinegar. Cook over medium heat until sugar is dissolved, about seven minutes. Then cook, stirring constantly, 20 to 25 minutes or until mixture reaches 300-degrees when tested with a candy thermometer. Remove from heat. Quickly stir in baking soda and mix well. Pour into buttered 12-by-15-inch pan. Do not spread. Mixture will spread itself. Cool completely then break into chunks.
