Delicious and couldn't be easier. I cooked it for six minutes but had the heat turned way down after it came to a boil so it probably could have gone the full seven. Lots of fun, like a chemistry experiment after the baking soda was added.

So easy, no thermometer to mess with but I have to say i agree with Andypandy seven minutes was way to long, I found that swirling the pan occasionally til it just started to change color then pulling it from the heat and adding the soda worked. The first time it was way to burnt as I was trying to wait the seven minutes 
But this was my first time being successful with hokey pokey (my mom's favorite)

Looked in Edmonds and used 5 TBSP sugar. Only note is get out of pan QUICK once baking soda is added and frothed up. Mine tasted a bit burned due to my slow response time!

Mmmmm.... such an easy recipe. I made this while I was babysitting my neice and nephew. The first batch didnt have time to cool off. 2nd batch we had to make double. Will be making this often.
