 Categories: Candy, Nuts, Snacks
      Yield: 36 Servings

      1 c  Brown sugar; packed
      2 c  Sugar
      1 c  Milk
      3 tb Butter
  1 1/2 ts Good vanilla
           Pecans; coarse chopped

  In a 3 qt saucepan combine the sugars and milk. Bring to a
  boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Continue cooking
  without stirring until the mixture reaches the soft-ball stage,
  238°F/114°C on a candy thermometer.

  Remove from heat. Add the butter and vanilla, but do not stir. Let
  the mixture cool without stirring until it reaches 110°F/43°C.
  and the outside of the pan feels lukewarm, about 40 minutes. While
  the mixture is cooling, butter and 8" square pan.

  With a wooden spoon beat the mixture until it becomes thick and
  begins to lose its gloss. Quickly stir in the pecans, and pour
  into the pan. Don't scrape the sides, since they may be sugary.
  Cut with a sharp knife into 1-1/2" squares.
