Ingredients.
- 1 ½ cups toasted pecans
- 1 ½ cups white sugar
- ⅜ cup butter
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- ½ cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preparation.
Step 1.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Step 2.
In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine pecans, sugar, butter, brown sugar, milk and vanilla. Heat to between 234 and 240 degrees F (112 to 116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface.
Step 3.
Drop by spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet. Let cool completely.
