Mexican Pecan Candy

• 2 cups sugar
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 cup pecans (or more, to taste)

Place back on burner and cook until it forms a soft ball, 234 degrees F. on a candy thermometer.Remove from burner; place pan in a pan of cold water and beat until creamy. Then drop by spoonfuls on waxed paper
