Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1/2 lb Light brown sugar
pn Salt
1/4 c Plus 2 tablespoons
Evaporated milk
1 1/2 ts Butter
1 c Chopped pecans

Mix sugar, salt, evaporated milk and butter in a heavy-bottomed
saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden
spoon, until sugar dissolves. Stir in pecans and cook over medium

cup of ice water, it will form a soft ball that flattens easily

parchment paper-lined baking sheets; let cool completely until firmed
up. Store in an airtight container.
