Anyway, these were really good. Be sure to use a candy thermometer and a large pot--on the first batch, the kids used too small of a pot, it bubbled over and they couldn't see the temperature marks on the thermometer, and pulled it too early so they didn't set up. But they tasted great--would be a wonderful sauce over ice cream! The second batch they got it, and they turned out great!
