- 1 c sugar
- 1 c evaporated milk
- 1/2 c butter
- 3 egg yolks (beaten)
- 1 1/3 c flaked coconut
- 1 c finely chopped pecans.
- 1 t vanilla extract
In saucepan combine sugar, evaporated milk, butter and egg yolks. Cook over low heat (stir constantly!) until this thickens considerably (took me about 8 minutes).
Remove from heat and stir in pecans and coconut.
Chill until thick enough to spread.
