👨‍🍳 Instructions

Put 2 cups sugar into a heavy skillet.

Melt over low heat, stirring with a wooden spoon as it melts slowly and becomes a syrup (about the color of light brown sugar).

Be careful not to let it smoke or turn dark brown.

Dump 4 cups sugar and 2 cups milk into a large deep kettle.

Place over low heat and simmer as you continue to stir the melting sugar.

When sugar in skillet has melted, pour in a fine stream into the mixture in the kettle, stirring all the time to blend.

Cook and stir until it reaches firm ball stage (244° or 248°).

Remove from heat.

Add soda and stir as it foams.

Set aside for 20 minutes.

Add 1 teaspoon vanilla and beat until candy becomes thick.

Fold in the broken pecans.

Pour into buttered pan and cool.
