Ingredients:
- 2 cups brown sugar
- 1 cup evaporated milk
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon butter
- vanilla
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans, optional
Preparation:
Combine sugar and milk in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil and continue to boil gently until a little dab added to cold water forms a soft ball*, or about 238° on a candy thermometer. Add peanut butter, butter, and vanilla; beat until the mixture begins to thicken and is not as glossy. Add nuts, if using. Spread in a buttered loaf pan; chill until fully set and cut into squares.
*To Test for Soft Ball Stage:
A small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a ball, but is soft enough to flatten when picked up with fingers (234° to 240°).
