Equipment

  • Candy Thermometer
  • Baking Sheet

Ingredients

  • 1- ½ Cups Granulated Sugar
  • ¾ Cup Light Brown Sugar packed
  • Cup Heavy Cream
  • 6 tablespoon Butter
  • ¾ Cup Chopped Pecans

Instructions

  • In a heavy saucepan, combine sugar, brown sugar, cream, and butter.
  • Heat on medium or medium high until mixture comes to a boil – it will start out VERY thick.
