Ingredients:
2 cups sugar
1 lb butter
1 cup chopped pecans
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon vanilla
Directions:
In an 11 x 17 cookie sheet or jelly roll pan (needs to have sides), sprinkle 1/2 cup of the chopped nuts.
Place all remaining ingredients except nuts and chocolate chips in a heavy skillet. Turn heat to high and cook stirring constantly until the mixture is the color of honey (about 7 – 10 minutes).
Poor mixture into the cookie sheet or jelly roll pan. Let stand for approximately one minute and then sprinkle the chocolate chips over the top.
Let stand until chocolate chips have softened (about 5 – 10 minutes), then spread the chocolate over the mixture and sprinkle with the rest of the chopped nuts.
Let it cool until the chocolate isn’t sticky (about 2 hours), then break into pieces. It keeps for weeks if stored in a cool, dry place, but trust me it won’t last that long!
