From Mrs. Myers

Put over the fire in a saucepan, 1 pound of brown sugar with 1 cupful of cream and boil to the stage when dropped into cold water it makes a soft but firm ball in the fingers. Take from the fire and stir in a cupful of chopped English walnuts, hickory nuts or pecans, and stir again a few minutes; then turn out upon a buttered shallow pan and when cool cut into squares with a sharp knife.

Panoche

From Miss Augusta Gibbs Foute

Mix 2 1/2 cupfuls of brown sugar, 1 cupful cream, butter the size of a walnut; boil until candy can be made into a ball when tested. Add 1 cupful of walnuts finely broken; beat until thick and pour out into a buttered pan to cool. If milk is used more butter is necessary. A teaspoonful of unsweetened chocolate may be added.
