Benne Brittle Recipe

• 2 c. Sugar
• 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp Lemon extract
• 2 c. Parched benne seed (sesame seeds, I think)

1. "Benne seeds can't be procured in many places, but the candy made with it is so delicious and so characteristic of Charleston which the recipe is here included."
2. Add in the extracts to the sugar.
3. Heat the sugar in a saucepan, stirring constantly, as for peanut brittle.
4. When the sugar is melted, add in the benne seed, stirring it in quickly.
5. Pour at once onto a marble slab to cold or possibly pour into lightly buttered pans.
6. Mark in one-inch squares while still hot and break along the lines when cool.
7. -Mrs. Rhett
