       2 c  Sugar; (white granulated)
     2/3 c  Evaporated milk;

            -rather large pieces)
  
   Mix above ingredients-including the pecans.Cook over medium heat
   maintaining a slow boil-stir constantly until mixture forms a soft ball in
   cold water-or 230 on candy thermonter. (Be careful not to over cook) remove
   from heat immediately and add 1 tablespoon butter and 1 teaspoon of
   vanilla.Let cool about 10 minutes and then set it in cool water for about
   ten minutes-beat until slightly thickened.Drop by teaspoonful on waxed
   paper(candy should be rather soft not hard when putting it on the paper.)
   This recipe is from my sister, Sally.

   My hairdresser gave me this recipe years ago and it's still requested every
   year. These are known under various names. I think some call them buckeyes.
   This makes a huge batch. Makes it great for gift giving.
