Ingredients
1 teaspoon Mexican Vanilla
1 teaspoon butter
6 cups sugar
2 cans large cans of Carnation or Pet milk
Preparation
Mix together and cook over low flame; 5 1/2 cups sugar and 2 cans of milk in a large deep pan, stir constantly. In small pan melt and brown 1/2 cup sugar. Pour melted sugar into mixture very slowly. Continue to stir and cook about 35-40 minutes. Test mixture by dropping a little it into some water to see if it will form a soft ball (watch carefully because the amount of time varies). When soft ball is formed remove from fire, add butter and vanilla and with a mixer at high speed, beat about 2 minutes, continue to stir until cooled and thick. On large piece of wax paper form any shape you wish or butter a large cookie sheet and pour, when cold, cut into squares.
