Chocolate Pecan Fudge
| Sugar (granulated), | 2 cups |
| Milk, | ½ cup |
| Chocolate, | 2 squares |
| Butter, | 1 tablespoon |
| Flavoring (vanilla), | 1 teaspoon |
| Pecan meats, | ½ cup |
When the sugar, milk, chocolate and butter had boiled so that a little of the syrup dropped in cold water formed a soft ball, Betsey removed the saucepan from the fire, stood it in a pan of cold water, added the vanilla and nuts and beat the candy until it was as thick as heavy cream.
She poured it quickly into a buttered pan and marked in squares.
