Directions:
- Combine sugar, milk or cream, and well drained pineapple. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook until mixture reaches the soft ball stage (232-240 on the candy thermometer).
- Remove from heat and stir in pecans and coconut if using. You can also add a few drops of green food coloring for aesthetics, but be careful or it will glow :0 and look like toxic waste ;)
- Let cool slightly and then beat until creamy.
- Pour into a greased loaf pan, cook and cut into squares.
- The cook time is is approximate. Experienced candy makers know it depends on the weather and how fast you can get the milk to heat up to soft ball stage.
