When I was young I remember popping in video of The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. My sisters and I would watch it over and over. The Hundred Acre Woods was a magical place and we loved to watch and see all the wonderful adventures that Pooh and his friends had.

Now if you know that silly old bear, you know he LOVES honey. What better way to watch the movie then with some honey treats. I decide to make some Honey Cream Taffy. Enjoy!

Grease a 15x10x1-in. pan with butter; place in the refrigerator.

In a large deep heavy saucepan, combine 1 cup cream and 2 cups honey. Add 1 cup sugar; cook over medium heat and stir with a wooden spoon until sugar is melted and mixture comes to a boil.

Cover pan with a tight-fitting lid and boil for 1 minute.

Uncover; cook, without stirring, until a candy thermometer reads 290° (soft-crack stage).

Remove from the heat and pour into prepared pan (do not scrape sides of saucepan). Cool for 5 minutes.

Using a wooden spoon, bring edges of honey mixture into center of pan. Cool 5-10 minutes longer or until cool enough to handle.

Using buttered hands, pull and stretch taffy until ridges form.

Taffy will lose its gloss and become light tan in color. Pull into ropes about 1/2 in. thick. This is a great time to get the kids to help. They will love to pull the taffy.

With buttered kitchen scissors, cut into 1-in. pieces.

Wrap individually in plastic wrap or waxed paper.
