I didn't put a time for the cooking because it depends on your stove and how low you have the heat... it also has a cooling down period... the recipe makes about 78 pieces... I don't know where this recipe is from. Read more ...but it sure is on my Christmas candy list Ingredients:
6 c sugar, divided |
2 c light cream |
1/4 t baking soda |
1/2 c butter or margarine |
8 1/2 c (2 lbs.) pecans, broken |
Directions:
1. The flavor of this golden brown fudge comes from the caramelized sugar. Combine 4 cups sugar and cream in a heavy 4-quart saucepan. Set aside. Melt 2 cups sugar in a heavy 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Stir sugar 2. constantly until it begins to melt. Heat sugar-cream mixture over medium heat. Continue melting sugar in skillet, stirring and watching closely so it does not scorch. As soon as it is completely melted, pour liquid sugar in a thin stream into boiling sugar-cream mixture, stirring constantly. Do not let sugar remain over heat after completely melted; this will produced a scorched taste. Cook com- bined mixtures to 246 degrees F. Remove from heat and add baking soda and butter. Stir in and let candy stand for 30 minutes. Add nuts. Stir to mix; pour into buttered 9-inch square pans. Cool slightly and cut into squares. Makes about 78 pieces. |
