Ingredients:
- 2 cups - pecans chopped
- 1 1/2 cups - sugar
- 1/2 cups - light corn syrup
- 2 tablespoons - water
- 1 1/2 teaspoons - baking soda
Directions:
1. Grease a cookie sheet and set aside.
2. Preheat electric frying pan to 350 degrees; place pecans in pan and add sugar, corn syrup and water. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes or until syrup becomes golden.
3. Add baking soda and stir thoroughly. Mixture will foam and deepen in color. Quickly pour mixture onto prepared greased cookie sheet and spread as thinly as possible with a spoon or knife.
4. Cool until it is hardened and no longer sticky to the touch. Break into bite-sized pieces; store in an airtight container.
