Provided by Kikimony

Categories     Sauces

Time 10m

Yield 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/4 cup honey
1 1/2 cups water
2 cups firmly packed light brown sugar
2 cups pecan pieces
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in a saucepan.
  • Cook, stirring frequently, over medium heat until thickened.
  • Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use fresh or toasted pecans for the best flavor. If using toasted pecans, toast them in a single layer on a baking sheet in a preheated 350°F oven for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant and slightly browned. Allow the pecans to cool completely before using.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the pecans and sugar. This will prevent the pecans from cooking evenly and will also make it more difficult to stir the mixture. Cook the mixture in batches if necessary.
  • Stir the mixture constantly while cooking. This will help to prevent the sugar from burning and will also help to evenly coat the pecans with the sugar syrup.
  • Cook the mixture until it reaches a light amber color. This will take about 5-7 minutes. Be careful not to overcook the mixture, as this will make the pralines hard and brittle.
  • Immediately pour the mixture onto a greased baking sheet or parchment paper. This will help to prevent the pralines from sticking together.
  • Allow the pralines to cool completely before serving. This will help them to harden and become brittle.

Conclusion:

Pecan praline sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used to add flavor to a variety of desserts. It is easy to make and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Whether you are using it as a topping for ice cream, pancakes, or waffles, or as a filling for cakes or pies, pecan praline sauce is sure to be a hit.
