2000 Recipe - Vaudine Thayer

April Ferre - Santa Cruz County Fair - 1st Place (2000)

"I was volunteering with the Santa Cruz County Fair Home Arts Committee during my senior year of high school.  We all brought in a lot of good food that year to share, but this recipe from Vaudine was at the top of our lists.  This is the actual recipe from See's, which she got from the friend of a family member who worked at See's Candies.  It's another favorite of friends and coworkers during the holidays.  This recipe is almost fool-proof, but you absolutely must use an aluminum pan, no other type of pan will work." - April Ferre 

"Extremely easy and tastes much like Heath Toffee Bars.  I make this up when I'm craving something sweet." - Calla Ferre
