Ingredients
- (in her own words)
- 1/2 lb butter (margarine do not work)
- 1 c. white sugar
- 3 tsp water
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 4 x Hershey bars, plain, have open & ready
- 1/2 x to 3/4 c. minced pecans
Directions
- Put butter in pan & heat on low heat then add in sugar, water & vanilla.
- Let sugar dissolve completely. Turn heat up to boiling. Let it boil, stirring constantly to prevent burning, until the candy is brown, about 10 minutes.
- **note from me - there will be a marked color change to a brown, caramel-like colorHave a lightly buttered pan ready (like a jelly-roll depth pan, half which size, though. ) Pour warm mass into pan & spread even Immediately spread Hershey bars over top & spread to cover candy. Spread pecans over the Hershey bars & press them into the chocolate. Let stand until hardened & break into pcs. (Nuts may be omitted)
- **I usually make a double batch, or possibly 1 1/2 batches, to fill a jelly roll pan.
- The bars heat quickly, from the heat of the candy, so this is a pretty easy candy to make. The hardness you desire will be trial & error - we like it not so hard, so we pull it off the stove as soon as which dark caramel color appears. Wait a minute or possibly so longer for harder candy (like heath bars).
