Vagabond Skor

How to Make Vagabond Skor

Ingredients

• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup light corn syrup
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup Kraft Caramel Bits
• 1/2 cup chopped peanuts

Instructions

Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper and set aside.

In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, corn syrup, water, and salt.

Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the sugar has dissolved.

Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Pour the hot sugar mixture into the prepared pan and let cool for 10 minutes.

Sprinkle the Caramel Bits and peanuts evenly over the sugar mixture.

Let cool completely, then break into pieces.

Tips

For a chewier Skor, cook the sugar mixture for longer, until it reaches the hard-crack stage (300 degrees F on a candy thermometer).

For a crunchier Skor, cook the sugar mixture for less time, until it reaches the soft-crack stage (280 degrees F on a candy thermometer).

You can use any type of nuts in this recipe. Walnuts, almonds, and pecans are all good choices.

Variations

Add a few drops of food coloring to the sugar mixture for a colored Skor.

Sprinkle some sea salt over the Caramel Bits and peanuts for a salty-sweet Skor.

Dip the Skor pieces in melted chocolate for a chocolatey treat.
