I have been wanting to share this recipe for quite some time but had misplaced it. I found it today, tucked inside a book! This is delicious. Don't wait until Christmas to make it!
1/2 cup butter (no substitutes)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups powdered sugar
1 cup pecan halves, toasted and coarsely chopped
In a large, heavy saucepan, combine the butter, sugars, cream, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Boil for five minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla. Stir in powdered sugar until smooth, then fold in pecans. Spread in buttered 8" square pan. Cool to room temperature. Cut into 1" squares. Store in an airtight container in refrigerator.
