CARAMEL PECAN PRALINES
Steps:
- In a heavy bottomed pan, add the butter, sugar, corn syrup and stir over medium high heat.
- Once the butter has melted completely and the sugar has dissolved, slowly pour the heavy cream into the mixture while stirring. You don't want to add it too fast or it can make your caramel crystallize or become grainy.
- Bring the mixture to a boil and cook until it hits the caramel stage, just below hard ball stage or around 238 F. for a soft, yet firm enough to hold it's shape caramel. I always eat the caramel I ice water test so I can see if I like the way it feels on my teeth. I don't want it too sticky or hard.
- *If you do cook the caramel past the desired stage, add more cream and stir, it will set back the stage the caramel is at.
- Pour mixture onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Add pecans on the top and fold into the hot caramel with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula.
- Let caramel cool slightly so you don't burn your hands but the caramel is still warm. Pull from the caramel pecan mixture and form into small ball shapes then press slightly flat so it forms a disc shape.
- Top with sea salt if desired and wrapped each praline in parchment paper to prevent it from sticking.
- Enjoy!
TEXAS PECAN PRALINES
My pecan praline recipe is special to me for I received it from my mother, who was an excellent cook! I also am a Texas Aggie Mom and I use pecans from a South Texas Aggie grower that our Aggie Mom's club has purchased from for many years. The quality is outstanding and far better than you will find in any grocery store. -Carol Jones, Blue Ridge, Texas

- Before you begin, lay out your parchment paper, 1/4-cup measuring cup or cookie scoop, and small spatula, and measure out your pecans. You need to be able to move quickly once you take your candy off the heat and can't waste any time looking for tools or measuring ingredients once it starts to cool.
- Add sugar, half-and-half, butter, and baking soda to a large pot (5 qts or more). Stir ingredients to combine and heat over medium high heat.
- Heat, stirring frequently, until mixture reaches 250 degrees Fahrenheit. If you do not have an instant-read thermometer or candy thermometer, please watch the recipe video and refer to the photos above or in the recipe notes for a visual of what to look for so you know it's the right temperature.
- When the mixture reaches 250 degrees, remove from heat and stir in the pecans. Let the mixture cool for one minute so it can thicken a little before you scoop out your pralines.
