I grew up on the Texas-Mexico border in south Texas.
We would often cross the border into Mexico to do shopping. My parents would always buy this candy. They called it "goat milk candy". It was a cylinder of candy, about 2 inches diameter, maybe 4-5 inches long. It was a very light tan in color, and was soft and creamy. Very sweet. You didn't suck on this candy, a nibble size piece would pretty much melt quickly in your mouth. Anyone know what this candy would be called? Lee Carkenord |

Perhaps this is what you are looking for. I have not tried the recipe
yet, but is sounds close to what you are describing. Cajeta (Mexican Caramel Candy) 3 quarts goat's milk 2 tablespoons Cornstarch 3 cups sugar 1/4 tsp baking soda Dissolve baking soda and cornstarch into 1 cup of milk. Stir well to dissolve breaking up lumps. Add the rest of the goats milk and add sugar. Bring to a boil stirring constantly while cooking. Cook until ixture is think and looks like caramel sauce. Pour into jars,cool and refrigerate. This makes a great topping for ice cream and is also a delicious apple dip. |
