 Ingredients List

  • 6 c Sugar, divided
  • 2 c Light cream
  • 1/4 ts Baking soda
  • 1/2 c Butter or margarine
  • 8 1/2 c (2 lbs.) pecans, broken

 Directions

The flavor of this golden brown fudge comes from the caramelized sugar.
Combine 4 cups sugar and cream in a heavy 4-quart saucepan. Set aside. Melt
2 cups sugar in a heavy 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Stir sugar
constantly until it begins to melt. Heat sugar-cream mixture over medium
heat. Continue melting sugar in skillet, stirring and watching closely so
it does not scorch. As soon as it is completely melted, por liquid sugar in
a thin stream into boiling sugar-cream mixture, stirring constantly. Do not
let sugar remain over heat after completely melted; this will produced a
scorched taste. Cook com- bined mixtures to 246 degrees F. Remove from heat
and add baking soda and butter. Stir in and let candy stand for 30 minutes.
Add nuts. Stir to mix; pour into buttered 9-inch square pans. Cool slightly
and cut into squares. Makes about 78 pieces.
