Description

It's crunchy and sweet with a deep roasted nutty flavor, and makes a great edible gift.

Ingredients
  • ¾ cup white sugar
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 cup raw sesame seeds
  • 2 teaspoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
  1. 1. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
  2. 2. Combine sugar, honey, and water in a small, thick bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir until a smooth slurry forms, about 3 minutes. Stir in raw sesame seeds.
  3. 3. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring often, until mixture turns an amber-caramel color, 5 to 10 minutes. A candy thermometer should read 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Remove saucepan from heat. Stir in butter and vanilla extract. Pour mixture onto prepared baking sheet.
  4. 4. Cool until hardened, 15 to 20 minutes. Break into pieces.
