This is a classic New England candy. It has the consistency of fudge, though I don't think it technically qualifies since it doesn't have any chocolate. I've also heard it referred to as caramel fudge and brown sugar fudge. I call it a diabetic coma.
Cut into 1" x 1" x 1/2" pieces, you'll end up with approximately 160 pieces, so you'd better have some friends to help you eat them. (And if you don't have friends then this candy can only help your odds )
