One of the first things my mother taught me how to cook. I remember the smell and hardly being able to wait for it to cool. Now days, everyone asks me for it on the holidays so it's stayed a holiday tradition. It takes almost 30 minutes exactly from start to finish and sets up every time. I have never made it where it doesn't get hard. Handed down from my aunt whom I was named after. Ingredients:
4 cups sugar |
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk |
1 cup butter |
32 marshmallows |
12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips |
1 dash vanilla |
chopped pecans |
Directions:
1. Combine sugar, milk and butter in heavy saucepan. Cook over medium heat stirring constantly to soft ball stage.
2. Remove from heat.
3. Add vanilla, marshmellows and stir til almost melted.
4. Add chocolate chips and stir until everything is completely melted.
5. Toss in pecans if desired.
6. Pour on to large buttered platter or plate.
7. Allow to cool completely. I cut into squares using the pizza cutter. Store in tight container - though it won't last long at all!
8. This can be easily cut in half for smaller batch.
