Date Nut Candy

Ingredients:
sugars, granulated
milk, fluid, 1% fat, without added vitamin a and vitamin d
butter, without salt
dates, deglet noor
nuts, pecans
vanilla extract
salt, table

Directions:
In large saucepan over med to med-hi heat, mix sugar, milk, and butter.
Stir constantly about 15 min.
Good test: drop a tiny amount into ice water.
If it forms instantly into a firm ball, it's ready.
Add dates.
Stir constantly until dates are melted, about 15-20 minutes depending on how finely you chopped the dates.
Try the "firm ball" test.
Remove from stove immediately and pour into greased pan.
Wait until candy cools in pan (about 10 minutes).
Then cut candy into squares.
Don't wait too long because the candy will be too hard to cut.
Candy will keep in the fridge for about a week.
