Time 20m

Yield 18 to 20 pralines

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white granulated sugar
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1 1/2 cups whole pecans
Butter, to grease cookie sheet

Steps:

  • Place sugars, water and cream in a heavy, medium saucepan over moderate heat. Stir often and cook to a soft ball stage, about 8 to 10 minutes. Use a candy thermometer; the soft-ball stage is between 234 degrees F and 240 degrees F.
  • Remove from heat and beat mixture with an electric mixer in the pot on low setting until creamy, 2 or 3 minutes. Stir in all the pecans to coat evenly. Using a soup spoon or tablespoon, drop big spoonfuls of praline mixture onto a buttered sheet pan to cool.

These pralines are really good, but they're a bit time-consuming to make. I would recommend making them on a day when you have plenty of time.

I had a hard time getting the pralines to set. I followed the recipe exactly, but they just stayed gooey.

These pralines are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good. I would recommend using less sugar if you're not a fan of really sweet desserts.

I'm not a huge fan of pralines, but these are really good. They're not too sweet and they have a nice crunch.
