In a saucepan over medium heat, put the butter, sugar and evaporated milk in and stir
Using a whisk, stir continuously until the butter has melted and the sugar dissolved.
Continue to cook until it begins to have a low boil
Continue using the whisk to stir, until the mixture reaches a temperature of 235*. Even if you are impatient, do not raise the temperature of the stove any higher than medium.
Remove the pan from the stove when the temp is achieved and allow to cool
Whisk the mix once every few minutes until it begins to lose the glossy shine and begins to thicken.
Stir in the vanilla extract, mixing well to combine
Add the pecan halves and stir to incorporate
Using a cookie scoop, drop by the scoopful onto a sheet of parchment paper
