Sponge Candy (Microwave)
1 cup sugar
1 cup dark corn syrup
1Tbl. vinegar
1 Tbl. Baking Soda
Combine sugar,syrup and vinegar in 2 qt. bowl. Cover and microwave on High for 3 min. Stir well. Then microwave
uncovered for 4 1/2 to 10 min. until thickened. I do it 8 min. Test by dropping a small amount in cold water. It should be brittle . If not micro. a little longer.Stir in baking soda and mix well. The mixture will foam up. Pour into a greased 9" square dish. Let stand until firm. Break into pieces.
