      Title: VIRGINIA FUDGE
 Categories: Candies
      Yield: 75 Servings
 
     12 oz EVAPORATED MILK
    1/2 c  BUTTER
      2 tb LIGHT CORN SYRUP
      2 c  BROWN SUGAR; firmly packed
      1 ts VANILLA
      2 c  PECANS
 
  Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking pan; set aside. In a heavy 4-quart
  saucepan, combine milk, butter, corn syrup, granulated sugar and
  brown sugar. Place over medium heat and stir occasionally with a
  wooden spoon until mixture comes to a boil. Clip on candy
  thermometer. Cook to 234 F (115 C) or soft- ball stage. Pour, without
  scraping, into baking pan. Cool to lukewarm. Add vanilla. Stir with a
  wooden spoon until mixture thickens. Add nuts and continue stirring
  until candy loses its gloss. Scrape out onto plastic wrap. Pat into a
  loaf shape (about 9" x 5"). Slice and serve, or wrap in plastic and
  store in the refrigerator for several weeks. VARIATION: Use 1
  teaspoon maple extract instead of vanilla. Shared by ELLIE COLLIN,
