I’ve read that corn syrup will make it creamier, but then you wont have the brown sugar/molasses taste. I’ve never tried it w/ corn syrup.

1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cold water
1/2 c. pecans or almonds in a plastic bag using rolling pin!

1 t. vanilla extract
Dash salt

Generously butter a cookie sheet.

Put butter, sugar, and water in a heavy pan or skillet over medium-high heat

Bring to a bubbling boil, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, about 10 minutes.
Remove spoon from pan, and cook to a very brittle stage (300 degrees to 310 degrees F on a candy thermometer).
Or, make a cold water test: candy will separate into hard, brittle threads when dropped in cold water. Remove from heat and add nuts to mixture.
Add vanilla
Pour onto prepared cookie sheet and spread to 1/4-inch thickness.
Cool slightly, top with chocolate chips or chocolate bars, and spread as it melts.
Cool completely and break into pieces. Store in an airtight container.
