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

- 2 teaspoons butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
- 1. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
- 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. 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.
