1 pk Regular sized marshmallows
2 c White sugar
1 c White Karo syrup
1 lg Can evaporated milk
1 sm Can evaporated milk
1/2 lb Margarine
pn Baking soda
1 ts Vanilla

ALLOW ONE FULL HOUR FOR PREPARATION AND FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY! DO NOT
ATTEMPT ON A DAMP AND RAINY DAY. Boil the sugar and white Karo until it
reaches 254~. Add the margarine and stir until melted. Keep the syrup
boiling. Keep it boiling also as you add the milk a little at a time and
stir constantly. Add a pinch of soda and boil and stir until it reaches
237~ (or soft ball stage). Pour into a buttered pan, without scraping sides
of pan. Allow to cool until comfortable to the touch. Cut in 1 " squares.
Take each square of caramel and stretch out flat enough to fold around a
marshmallow. Wrap in wax paper squares. Or cut caramel into smaller squares
and dip in chocolate. Or just cut in squares and wrap as caramels. A
modjeska is the caramel-wrapped marshmallow. These are native to
Louisville, Kentucky and are absolutely wonderful!!! Worth every stir!
