Source:
| 1 cup | sugar |
| 1/2 cup | light corn syrup |
| 1/2 cup | water |
| 1 tablespoon | unsalted butter |
| 2 teaspoons | vanilla extract |
| 1 teaspoon | baking soda |
| 1/2 cup (about 2 ounces) | chopped pecans |
| 1/3 to 1/2 cup | cooked bacon bits, (6 to 8 ounces uncooked bacon) |
Grease or butter a large nonstick baking sheet.
In a medium heavy saucepan, combine the sugar, corn syrup and water over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the syrup comes to a boil. Attach a candy thermometer to the pan, increase the heat to high, and cook, without stirring, until the mixture reaches 290 degrees. Immediately remove from the heat.
Stir in the butter, vanilla, baking soda, pecans and bacon bits. Watch out, the mixture will foam. When the foam subsides, pour the hot mixture onto the prepared baking sheet as thinly as possible. Do not use a spatula.
Cool at least 10 minutes before breaking into pieces. Store in a covered container.
