    Source of Recipe

    List of Ingredients




    1/2 cup sugar
    1/2 cup evaporated milk
    1 tablespoon white corn syrup
    1 package chocolate chips, (6 oz)
    1 cup chopped nuts, walnuts or pecans
    1 cup miniature marshmallows

    Recipe



    Mix sugar, milk and 1 tablespoon corn syrup in a heavy 2 quart saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Continue boiling, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and add chocolate chips, stirring until completely melted. Let mixture cool for 15 minutes. Add pecans and marshmallows. Using 2 teaspoons, drop candy onto a large baking sheet lined with wax paper. Chill until firm.

    To test for soft ball stage: Use fresh cold water each time you test the candy. In about 1 cup of cold water, spoon about 1/2 teaspoon of hot candy. Put you hand into the water and push the candy to form a ball. Gently pick the formed ball up (if it will not form a ball, it is not done) - the soft ball will flatten slightly when removed from water.
