ingredients
2 cans evaporated milk
3 cups sugar
2 cups pecans
2 tablespoons almond extract
1/4 cup margarine
1/2 cup cold water (to test mixture)
directions
Parch pecans until crunchy, about 8 minutes in the microwave. Set aside. Butter a medium sized cookie sheet, set aside.
In a nonstick pot, add milk and sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring often so that mixture doesn't stick (about 45 minutes to an hour).
When mixture has cooked down and thickened, test the readiness of mixture by taking 1/2 teaspoon of the mixture, letting it drop into 1/2 cup of cold water. If the mixture is of a caramel consistency, it is ready.
At that time, add pecans, margarine and extract, stirring very well. Pour onto buttered cookie sheet. Let cool for about 15 minutes. Cut into squares.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
