Date Nut Roll 1 cup milk 2 cups granulated sugar 1 tablespoon butter or margarine 1 1/2 cups chopped, pitted dates 1 cup chopped pecans 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Cook milk, sugar and butter over medium heat until it forms a soft ball when dropped into a cup of cold water, about 234 degrees F. Add dates, nuts and vanilla extract. Beat with a wooden spoon until creamy. Put a clean cup towel on the counter or butter a sheet of wax paper. When the candy is cool enough to handle, roll the mixture into the towel or wax paper in a log shape. Refrigerate overnight and slice when chilled.
