My wife made this a few times, it just melts in the mouth.

2 cups brown sugar

1/4 cup milk

6 Tablespoons Butter (approx 1/2 cup)

1 Teaspoon Vanilla essence

2 cups Icing sugar

1/2 cup mixed nuts or dried fruit (optional)

Mix sugar, milk, butter and vanilla together, bring to boil over medium heat Boil for approx 2 mins.

Remove from stove, add Icing sugar and stir quickly,mixing thoroughly,

(add nuts or fruit at this point)

Pour into a buttered pan

Cut while still warm ( hardens fast)

Enjoy the sweetness.
