Cuisine: Mexican
Prep Time: 5 minutes plus 1 hour to chill
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour and 25 minutes
Servings: 20
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter
- 2 cups brown sugar
- 14 ounces (1 can) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
Here's how to make it:
- Combine all the ingredients in a saucepot over low heat. Bring to a boil and cook for about 15 minutes, stirring often.
- Test the candy by taking a small amount and dropping it into cold water. If you can mold it with your fingers, it is ready. If not, continue cooking 2 to 3 more minutes and try again.
- When ready, pour the mixture into the bowl of a stand mixer or regular mixing bowl. With an electric mixer, beat for 5 minutes.
- Immediately pour the candy into an 8x8-inch baking pan that's been lined with parchment paper and sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Spread the candy with a rubber spatula. Refrigerate about 1 hour or until set. Cut into squares. The number of servings will vary depending on how big you cut the squares. This is a rich candy, so I make them smaller.
