Pumpkin Candy

1 quart fresh pumpkin, cubed
1 cup packed brown sugar

Put pumpkin cubes in pan and cover with water.
Bring to a boil and cook 15 to 20 minutes.
Drain, but save, the liquid - approximately 1 1/2 cups.
Mix liquid with brown sugar.
Pour over pumpkin and boil for another 15 minutes.
Let pumpkin pieces stand overnight in the syrup.

The next day, boil pumpkin pieces for another 5 minutes,
then take them from the syrup and set them on a waxed
paper lined tray.
Set in the sun to dry (be aware of bugs). After about 10 hours,
roll in granulated sugar.

OR
Place in a 140 degree oven for 3 to 4 hours to dry.
