1 cup light brown sugar firmly packed
1 cup granulated sugar
2/3 cup evaporated milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups pecans halves

In heavy saucepan, combine sugars and milk cook, stirring constantly with wooden spoon, over medium heat until soft ball stage is reached, 234° to 238° F. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla and pecans. Immediately drop by tablespoonfuls onto buttered cookie sheet.

Note: For every 500 feet elevation over sea level, decrease end cooking point by 1 degree. For example, at 6000 feet decrease the end cooking point by 12 degrees hence your thermometer would read 222° to 226° F.
