- butter a 8 or 9 inch square baking dish.
- in a large heavy saucepan, stir together the brown sugar and evaporated milk. bring to a boil over medium-high heat. cook until the temperature reaches between 234 and 240 degrees f (112 to 116 degrees c), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface.
