Honey Squares Recipe

Honey squares are an old-fashioned candy sweetened with honey and brown sugar.

This recipe is from a cookbook dated 1916.


What You’ll Need:

  • 1 cup of honey.
  • 1 cup of brown sugar.
  • 2 tablespoons of Crisco.
  • 1/2 cup of cream.
  • 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
  • 1 teaspoon of lemon extract.
  • A pinch of cream of tarter.


Honey Squares Recipe Instructions:

  1. Place the Crisco, salt, honey, cream and sugar into a saucepan, stir over low heat until dissolved, then add the cream of tarter.
  2. Boil the mixture until it forms a hard ball when a drop is placed in cold water (252 degrees F).
  3. Remove from heat, stir in the lemon extract, and then pour the mixture into a greased pan.
  4. Cut into squares when cool. Should make about 25 squares.
