Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1 c Cream; Light 3 tb Butter Or Regular Margarine
1 c Sugar 1/2 ts Vanilla
1/2 c Light Corn Syrup; Karo 2 1/2 c Pecans; Chopped
1/4 ts Salt 6 oz Chocolate Chips; Semi-Sweet

Heat the light cream in a heavy 2-quart saucepan to lukewarm (110
degrees F.). Reserve 1/2 c cream and set it aside. Add the sugar,
corn syrup and salt to the remaining 1/2 cup of cream in the
saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the
mixture boils. Slow stir in the reserved cream. Cook, stirring
constantly, for 5 minutes. Stir in the butter, 1 tsp at a time,
stirring constantly. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until
the mixture reaches the soft ball stage, (234 Degrees F.) on the
candy thermometer. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
Arrange the pecans on a waxed-paper lined baking sheet. Drop the
mixture by teaspoonfuls onto the pecans. As the clusters cool, remove
with a metal spatula to another waxed-paper lined baking sheet. Push
the remaining pecans together and repeat until all of the candy
mixture is used. If the mixture becomes too thick, heat over low
heat. Melt the chocolate chips over hot water and stir until smooth.
Spread on the top of each pecan cluster. Let stand until the
chocolate is set and store the candies in a cool place. Makes about 4
dozen.
