Bread and Butter Pickles

SIMPLE BUT DELICIOUS BREAD AND BUTTER PICKLES

4 quarts of dill pickles (store bought) (thick sliced or chunked)
2 pounds of sugar
1-1/2 bottles of Tabasco

Layer pickles, sugar and Tabasco in a glass jar or plastic container with a tight fitting lid. DO NOT ADD ANY OF THE PICKLING LIQUID - DURING THE PICKLING PROCESS THE SLICES WILL PRODUCE THEIR OWN LIQUID.

Leave on cabinet for a day, turning the container over and lightly shaking periodically.

Refrigerate and continue routine for at least three days before eating.

Modify amounts to suit your family. For example: 1 quart of pickles, 1/2 pound of sugar and ½ bottle of Tabasco. These make a great treat at Thanksgiving or Christmas.
