2 cupsful of maple sugar, 1 cupful of cream, 2 cupsful of chopped nuts. Boil sugar with cream until it strings, stirring constantly. Just before removing from fire stir in the nuts. Take from stove, stir until nearly stiff, pour into buttered plate. In place of cream, one cup of milk and a teaspoonful of butter may be used. Sometimes the milk curdles when beginning to boil; this is no objection, as it becomes smooth when cold.
