This recipe was extracted from The white ribbon cook book (1894) by Kathryn Armstrong, page 104. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

cup- ful of New Orleans molasses, 1 of brown sugar, Home-Made Candies. 215 and half a cup of water. When it stands the test of water add a tablespoonful each of butter and vinegar. When it boils up remove from the fire, add 3 teacupfuls peanut or walnut meats, pour into buttered shallow pans, smooth the top, and when nearly cold cut in bars or squares with a buttered knife. Cocoanut bars are made in the same way, using fresh cocoanut that has been dried out

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
