4 heaping tablespoons cocoa |
3 tablespoons light corn syrup |
1 cup evaporated milk |
6 tablespoons butter, plus extra for buttering dish |
1 cup chopped pecans |
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Mix sugar and cocoa; add syrup and milk. Cook in saucepan over medium heat until a small drop forms a soft ball in cold water (234 to 240 degrees F on a candy thermometer). Remove from heat.
