Personal Notes:
This recipe was given to me by your Aunt Linda. I love making it for you grandkids. It is kind of tricky getting it to the right temperature until you've made it a few times, then you can tell by the way it looks. No matter, however. If not cooked enough, it makes a fine caramel sauce. If cooked too long, it makes a good Slo-Poke.
