"My jeans will rue the day I found this recipe. It is not only easy but quick. I mix the sugars and milk together before putting on the stove, then let it cook without stirring. I take it off the heat one degree before soft-ball stage. I have found that by doing that nothing sticks to the bottom of the pan. I made a double batch that turned out fine, but I had to scoop it out quickly before it hardened in the pan. Love this recipe."
