Ingredients:

  • 4 cups sugar
  • 4 tbsp cocoa
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1/4 cup of good bourbon

Directions:

  1. In a heavy saucepan, mix sugar and cocoa until blended.
  2. Add milk and stir until blended.
  3. Add heat and slowly bring mixture to a boil. Allow mixture to boil up and dissolve sugar crystals on the sides of the pan.
  4. Boil until candy reaches the soft ball stage (230-240 degrees), stirring constantly.
  5. To test for soft ball stage drop a little of the candy mixture in clean, ice cold water. If you can roll it around with your finger and it holds together, it's ready.
  6. Remove from heat, and stir in bourbon.
  7. Beat mixture with a spoon, stirring briskly until the candy starts to crust around the sides of the saucepan and the mixture thickens considerably.
  8. Pour into a buttered 9x13 glass dish. Allow to cool slightly and cut into squares.
  9. Press a whole pecan into the top of each square.
  10. Enjoy!
