Time 45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 cups brown sugar
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 ⅔ cups finely chopped pecans

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, combine brown sugar, cream and butter. Stir until dissolved. Heat to between 234 and 240 degrees F (112 to 116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface. Remove from heat and stir vigorously until mixture loses its gloss, or process in a food processor 30 seconds. Quickly stir in vanilla and nuts and spread into a 9x9 inch dish. Chill before cutting into squares.
