WALNUT RUM CRUNCH

    Walnut-Rum Crunch

    1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
    1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
    1 cup dark rum
    2 cups walnut halves

    Line large baking sheet with aluminum foil.

    Combine granulated sugar, brown sugar and rum in medium size heavy saucepan. Bring to boiling over medium-high heat. Continue cooking until temperature registers 275 degrees F on a candy thermometer, 15 to 25 minutes (soft crack state - mixture forms pliable strands when drizzled from a metal spoon into a bowl of cold water).

    Stir in walnuts. Quickly pour out onto prepared baking sheet, spreading out with metal spatula as you pour. Let cool completely.

    Break into 2-inch pieces. Store in airtight container in cool, dry place for up to 2 months.
