Red Hot Cinnamon Candies

Confectioners' sugar
3 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup white Karo syrup
1 cup boiling water
1 teaspoon red food coloring
1 teaspoon cinnamon oil (not extract)

Sprinkle a liberal layer of confectioners' sugar onto 2 cookie sheets. Cover well to keep candy from sticking.

Cook granulated sugar, Karo syrup and water to 290 degrees F. Add food coloring and cinnamon oil, being very careful of the fumes.

Mix well and pour evenly and slowly over sugared pans. Spread candy carefully. WORK QUICKLY. Allow to cool. Sprinkle confectioners' sugar over top of candy. Crack into pieces.
