Directions
Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan; set aside.
In a heavy 4 quart saucepan, combine milk, butter, corn syrup, granulated sugar and brown sugar.
Place over medium heat and stir occasionally with a wooden spoon until mixture comes to a boil.
Clip on candy thermometer. Cook to 234 degrees F or soft- ball stage.
Pour, without scraping, into baking pan. Cool to lukewarm.
Add vanilla.
Stir with a wooden spoon until mixture thickens. Add nuts and continue stirring until candy loses its gloss.
Scrape out onto plastic wrap.
Pat into a loaf shape (about 9x5 inch). Slice and serve, or wrap in plastic and store in the refrigerator for several weeks.
