Steps:
- In a heavy, 2 quart saucepan, combine the sugar, corn syrup, hot water, and salt. Cook and stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture comes to a boil. Then cook to hard ball stage without stirring, 250 degrees F (120 degrees C.) Frequently wipe crystals forming on the sides of the pan, using a pastry brush dipped in water. Remove from heat.
- Just as the syrup is reaching temperature, begin whipping egg whites: In a large glass or stainless steel mixing bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Pour hot syrup in a thin stream over beaten egg whites, beating constantly with the electric mixer at medium speed. Increase speed to high, and continue beating for about 5 minutes. Add vanilla; continue beating until the mixture becomes stiff and begins to lose its gloss. If it is too stiff, add a few drops hot water.
- Immediately drop by teaspoonfuls onto waxed paper. For a decorative flair, twirl the top with the spoon when dropping. Let stand until set. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

ENGLISH TREACLE TOFFEE
This is a deliciously dark toffee that is a hard candy when you first put it in your mouth, but softens until it is wonderfully chewy. I adapted this from a recipe that I found at http://thefoody.com (which is a great site for English and Irish recipes).

- Just after all is melted and it is just beginning to heat up, prep the baking sheet. LIne a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Spread 3/4 C of the sliver almonds evenly over the foiled baking sheet. Reserve the remaining almonds and chop them into smaller pieces - this will be for the top of the toffee later.
- Stir continuously over the next 15-20 minutes. It will darken over time and once it is a medium-brown color with hints of brown/red (amber) check the reading on your candy thermometer. You want it at the SOFT CRACK heat which is 280-285°.
- As soon as it reaches 280-285°, safely pour the toffee evenly over the almonds on the prepared baking sheet.
