3 cups sugar
1/2 cup white corn syrup
1 cup milk or cream

4 tablespoon butter

1 cup pecans

Mix sugar, syrup, milk and broken chocolate together. Over low heat stir mixture until sugar has completely distributed. Keep sides of pan wiped down until wet brush or cloth. Increase heat and do not stir again.
