I'll admit I never had these as made by my G-ma Roberts....I found it in her files and the instructions are quite spare. When I made it, I'm not altogether sure if it came out like it was intended. It is sweet, chewy, crunchy and vanilla. Read more . Very hard to cut into pieces and that could be my fault in making it. Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups of sugar |
1/2 cup of karo |
1/2 cup of milk |
6 tablespoons of butter |
vanilla |
1 large c pecans (what is a large c ) one full cup, i suppose |
Directions:
1. Her instructions exactly as written:
2. Take half butter and toast pecans and salt slightly.
3. Boil candy for three minutes-rolling boil-add vanilla; add nuts,
4. beat and beat and beat, then either drop or pour in pan for cutting.
5. ******************************************************************
6. I toast the chopped pecans in 3 tbsp. of butter
7. Combine the sugar, karo, milk, remaining butter in large heavy bottomed sauce pan, bring to rolling boil and time for three minutes. Remove from heat and add vanilla and nuts.
8. Beat with a wooden spoon until it becomes pliable and cools down significantly. A real work out for the upper arms.
9. Instead of pouring into a 9 x 9. I think it would be better dropped by the spoonful on a sheet of waxed paper to harden.
