Caramelized Sugar Fudge




Source of Recipe


Aunt Belle


List of Ingredients




3 cups sugar
1 cup evaporated milk
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 stick butter (One stick butter is one half cup! )
1 cup chopped pecans (optional)


Recipe



Heat 2 cups of sugar with milk, just enough to warm. Melt remaining sugar in a heavy fry pan over low heat; do not stir.

Pour slowly into warm milk mixture. Turn heat to medium; stir constantly until all sugar crystals melt. Cook to soft ball stage; remove from heat.

Add soda, vanilla, and butter; beat until cool. Add pecans. Pour into buttered pan. Cut into squares.

Pecans are optional, and recipe can be doubled easily, but keep in mind there's a lot more stirring for a lot longer time if you do double it.
