Great-Grandma Cathy's Date Loaf Candy image

Handed down from my great-grandmother, and one of my father's all-time favorite holiday treats. Store in the refrigerator (rolled in the cloth), and it will keep for weeks. Otherwise, it becomes hard and sugary.

Time 8h30m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups white sugar
1 cup milk
¼ cup butter
1 cup chopped dates
1 cup chopped pecans
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Stir sugar, milk, and butter together in a saucepan; bring to a boil without stirring once the boiling begins.
