Peanut Butter And Chocolate Pralines

Courses: Dessert
Serves: 18 people

Recipe Ingredients

1 cup 198g / 7ozSugar
1 cup 160g / 5.6ozLight brown sugar - (packed)
1/2 cup 55g / 1.9ozMelted semi-sweet chocolate
1/2 cup 118mlSweetened condensed milk
2 tablespoons 30mlCorn syrup
1 tablespoon 15mlButter
1   Salt
3 tablespoons 45mlCreamy peanut butter
1 1/2 cups 355mlPecan pieces

Recipe Instructions

In a heavy saucepan, over medium heat, combine all of the ingredients except the pecan pieces. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Continue to cook, stirring, until the mixture begins to bubble around the edges of the pan, about 12 minutes. Add the pecans and continue to stir until mixture thickens, about 8 minutes, and reaches 234 to 240 degrees on a candy thermometer, or the soft ball stage, that is, when a bit dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens. Remove from the heat and drop by the tablespoonful onto waxed paper. Let cool and lift the pralines with a thin knife.

This recipe yields 1 1/2 dozen.
