3/4 c. butter or margarine
1/2 c. evaporated milk
3 c. sifted confectioners sugar
2 c. light brown sugar
1 t. vanilla
1 c. chopped pecans or walnuts, optional
Butter 8x2" square pan. Melt butter in heavy saucepan over low heat. Add brown sugar and cook on low heat stirring constantly for 2 minutes. Slowly add evaporated milk and continue cooking and stirring until mixture comes to a boil. Remove from heat and cool until lukewarm. Stir in vanilla. Slowly add confectioners sugar, beating vigorously until the mixture is a fudge-like consistency. (approx. 2 min.) Stir in nuts, if using. Spread in pan and chill. When firm, cut into squares and store in air tight container. These keep very well.
