This is
a French Canadian Favourite. Every Francophone person I know has a family
member who makes this regularly, and, in my family that person is me, lol. I
enjoy making it as much as I enjoy eating it.

3
cups brown sugar
1 (5 ounce) can Carnation Evaporated Milk
1/2 lb butter
1
cup icing sugar, sifted
1/4 cup walnuts, chopped, optional
DIRECTIONS
Combine first 3
ingredients.
Bring to a boil
over medium heat.
Boil 8 to 9
minutes, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat,

Pour into 9"
X 9" pan.
Cool about 15
minutes in refrigerator and cut into small squares.
Return to the refrigerator and let cool completely; remove from pan.
OMG, Bea! I need to take these to work, just so I don't eat the whole tray! The ingredients and method reminded me of candy my mom used to make - a Hispanic treat! These turned out slightly different, but still oh-so-good!!! A new favorite! The texture is melt in your mouth sweetness. I thought of not adding the walnuts, but am glad they were in there. This candy is out-of-this-world good...
ReplyDeleteThx.
DeleteI'm so glad you enjoyed this tasty treat.
This is really good, Bea! It was super easy to make. I wanted to put some nuts in there, but hubby doesn't like them. It cooled with a beautiful shiny, crackly finish. Tastes heavenly!
