Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon plus 1/2 cup butter, divided

  • 2-1/4 cups sugar
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 16 squares (1 ounce each) white baking chocolate, cut into small pieces
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups chopped pecans

Pour into prepared pan. Refrigerate until firm. Lift out of pan; remove foil and cut into 1-in. squares. Store in an airtight container at room temperature. Yield: about 3-1/2 pounds (about 6-1/2 dozen).
