Buckeye Candy Recipe
Old Time Recipes For Making Buckeye Candy
When you see a Buckeye candy recipe, you know it makes the best homemade candy! The Buckeye Publishing Company made clear that unlike some, their "Buckeye Cookery" cookbook was not a haphazard collection of recipes, gathered at random from doubtful sources, but it was compiled from original recipes submitted by hundreds of American women.
The cookbook's aim was to include the choicest recipes new to print. And indeed, it included some excellent vintage candy recipes, many given on this website, including the two offered below for making butterscotch candy and Buckeye kisses. I know you will enjoy trying these old fashioned candy recipes.
Buckeye Candy RecipesThese homemade candy recipes are taken from the book "Buckeye Cookery" published by Buckeye Publishing Company, Minneapolis, in 1877.
Buckeye Butterscotch Candy RecipeThree pounds "coffee A" sugar (granulated), one-fourth pound butter, half teaspoon cream of tartar, eight drops extract of lemon; add as much cold water as will dissolve the sugar, boil without stirring till it will easily break when dropped in cold water, and when done, add the lemon; have a dripping pan well buttered and pour in one-fourth inch thick, and when partly cold, mark off in squares. If pulled, when partly cold, till very white, it will be like ice cream candy. --Mrs. J. S. R.
Buckeye Kisses RecipeBeat the whites of four small eggs to a high, firm froth, then stir into it half a pound pulverized sugar, flavour with essence lemon or rose, continue to beat until very light; then drop half the size of an egg, and a little more than an inch apart, on well-buttered letter paper; lay the paper on a half-inch board and place in a hot oven; watch, and as soon as they begin to look yellowish take them out; or, beat to a stiff froth the whites of two eggs, stirring into them very gradually two teacups powdered sugar and two tablespoons cornstarch; bake on buttered tins fifteen minutes in a warm oven, or until slightly brown.
Chocolate Puffs are made by adding two ounces grated chocolate mixed with the cornstarch. --Mrs. W. W. W.
