Ingredients:
2 cups sugar
2/3 cup milk
1 cup maple syrup
2 cups pecans ( I often use walnuts)
Directions:
Boil the sugar, milk, and syrup to the soft ball stage (238f).
Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool.
When it is lukewarm, beat until it is smooth and creamy.
Stir in broken nutmeats.
Drop by spoonfuls onto buttered parchment or wax paper, making mounds.
Press a half walnut or pecan on top for decoration if desired.
Allow to finish cooling, then ENJOY!
