Yield 18 candies, 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup light brown sugar, tightly packed
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
2 tablespoons butter
1 pinch salt
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups pecan pieces

Steps:

  • In a heavy saucepan, over medium heat, combine the sugar, brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, salt and condensed milk.
  • With a wooden spoon, stir until the sugar dissolves.
  • Continue to cook, stirring, until smooth and light brown, about 8 minutes.
  • Add the vanilla and pecans and continue to cook, stirring, until the mixture reaches 234 to 240 degrees F. on a candy thermometer or the soft ball stage, that is, when a bit dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens. Remove from the heat and drop by the spoonful onto waxed paper.
  • Let cool.
