Print recipe
Ingredients
- ½ c. evaporated milk
- ½ c. coconut milk
- 3 c. Imperial Sugar granulated sugar
- 2 Tbsp. salted butter, room temperature
- 1 c. crushed pineapple, well-drained
- ½ c. white chocolate morsels
- 2 tsp. lemon juice

Instructions
Prepare a baking dish by coating the inside with softened butter. Alternatively, you can line the baking dish/pan with foil or wax paper.
In a medium saucepan, combine evaporated milk, coconut milk, sugar, and butter.
Stir, until all ingredients are combined well, and sugar is dissolved.
Heat slowly to a full rolling boil over medium heat; stirring constantly.
Stir in pineapples. Bring mixture to another full rolling boil over medium heat. Boil, stirring constantly to prevent burning, for 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat.
Fold in white chocolate morsels, and mix well. Allow to cool.
Add lemon juice. Beat until candy loses gloss.
Fold in the chopped pecans.
Turn into a buttered pan. Mark in squares. Garnish with pecan halves, if desired. Cool completely.
Refrigerate for 2 hours or until firm. Cut into pieces.
