Coat a large, rimmed baking sheet with butter and set it aside. (Test Kitchen Tip: Instead of butter, you can use a silicone baking sheet, which we find offers more even coverage of the pan.) In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the sugar, corn syrup, water, and salt to a boil, stirring continuously until the sugar has dissolved, about 5 minutes. Continue cooking, swirling the pan occasionally, until the mixture reaches the hard-ball stage (see Kitchen Science below) on a candy thermometer (250-265 degrees), about 5 minutes. With a pastry brush dipped in water or a heat-resistant silicone spatula, wash down the sides of the pan to keep sugar crystals from forming (all adult jobs).
As it is Thanksgiving, here in the USA, I thought it appropriate to say Thank You to my readers by sharing something delicious! After being gluten-free for several years, I find it is always fun to try to replicate favorite recipes without changing them overly much. For years my favorite cookies were on the back of the Eagle Brand Condensed Milk can, but the graham-cracker crust has wheat in it...so, this year I decided to see if I could make a gluten-free version. So, here it is! Gluten-Free Magic Cookie Bars ( makes 2 dozen bars) If you cut them in half, then it is only 100 calories each, and you can eat twice as many!
Gluten-Free Magic Cookie Bars
I have had lots of people asking me for alternatives to crappy grain ridden granola bars and they want them small and easy to take along, well this is what I came up with and boy are they addicting. There are an endless amount of possibilities with these so feel free to play around and come up with your own creations. Don’t forget to come by and tell me what you come up with or how much you love them. Enjoy Place your almonds and macadamia nuts in your food processor and continue to pulse until you have tiny chunks, you don’t want the consistency of flour, keep it rough.

Have you ever wondered why parents and teachers ask children to clap for each syllable they hear in words, often without really understanding the point of all that enthusiastic clapping? So, why do we teach children to hear syllables in words? Children do benefit from learning the concept of syllables, such as hearing them in words, understanding the syllable-spelling connection, and knowing that every syllable has a vowel. There are six common types of syllables found in English orthography. Teaching how these syllable patterns work in reading and spelling can be a powerful skill building activity for students, especially those who struggle to read, write, and spell. Once a child understands the concept of syllables, and can hear them in words, they are ready to begin learning the common syllable-spelling patterns, and how knowing these patterns can help them learn to read and spell.
