The great advantage of this recipe is that you can choose the doneness you want depending on the cooking process. Always being careful not to let it burn. To do this, always keep the pan over medium heat.

An advantage is that, if you leave the jar completely closed, when opened, this recipe lasts up to three months in the refrigerator. But, if you keep opening, this period is reduced. It is not recommended that the candy stay in cabinets or at room temperature.
