Holiday Pecan Logs image

Meet the Cook: For 50 years, I've turned to this beloved recipe to make candy to give away at Christmas. Of the many types I've tried, these pecan logs continue to be the most popular. I'm a registered nurse who managed to juggle my profession with raising our five children. Besides cooking and baking, my interests include sewing and putting together family photo albums. -Maxine Ruhl, Fort Scott, Kansas

Melt together the butter and marshmallow fluff in a large pot over medium heat. Stir often so it doesn't burn. Once the butter and marshmallow are well combined, remove pot from heat.
Use a wooden spoon to stir in 4 1/2 cups of powdered sugar. Work the sugar completely in to the marshmallow mixture. It will form a smooth, white dough.
Remove the marshmallow mixture to a powdered sugar dusted counter top. Knead in up to 1/2 cup more sugar until the dough has a matte finish.
Divide the dough in to 6 equal pieces. Roll the dough in to logs roughly 5 inches long and 1 inch thick. Wrap each log individually in plastic wrap. Freeze until solid.
