Martha Washington Candies

This is my favorite thing to make for Christmas. So easy yet so rich
tasting. I have seen several recipes for this candy that has coconut in
it. I do not use coconut in my recipe. The first recipe is the one I
use. The second one is for those that use coconut in their Martha
Washington candy.


Martha Washington Candy

1 can Eagle Brand milk
2 lbs. powdered sugar
1 stick butter, melted
1 tsp. vanilla
1 lb. pecans, chopped
1 block of paraffin wax
1 12 oz pkg semi-sweet chocolate chips

Mix first 5 ingredients. Put in small balls and drop on wax paper and
chill in ice box for about 1 to 2 hours or overnight.

Dip instructions: melt wax and chocolate chips in double boiler and dip
candy with a toothpick in chocolate then set on the wax paper.
