5 c. sugar

1/2 c. milk
1/2 stick butter (margarine)

Put 4 cups sugar, the cream and butter on slow fire.
While this is cooking, put the remaining cup of sugar in a skillet and caramelize over a slow fire.
When the mixture comes to a boil, add the burnt sugar and milk to it.
Cook until it reaches a soft ball when tested in cold water.
(Cook long enough.)
Let cool, then add vanilla.
