Share: Recipe for date candy

[Cindy Denning <Cynden744@AOL.COM>]

As requested by someone, here is a recipe for date candy.  It's a nice change
if you've been overdosing on fudge.  Mom came through!

Date Candy

3 C. sugar
1 C. milk
1 tsp. butter
1 8-oz. box dates
2 C. pecans
(and here I have + vanilla?)

Boil sugar, milk, and butter until it forms a soft ball in water.  Chop
dates and add to hot syrup; beat until cold, and add nuts.  Pour onto wet
cloth, roll, and slice when cold.

As I recall, they were delicious.  I really have no idea about the vanilla!
