Pecan Pralines Recipe - Cooking Index
| 1 cup | 160g / 5.6oz | Light brown sugar |
| 1/2 cup | 99g / 3.5oz | Granulated sugar |
| 1/2 cup | 118ml | Heavy cream |
| 4 tablespoons | 60ml | Unsalted butter |
| 2 tablespoons | 30ml | Water |
| 1 cup | 146g / 5.1oz | Pecan halves |
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the light brown sugar, granulated sugar, heavy cream, butter, and water. Place over a medium-high heat and stir constantly until the pralines reach the softball stage, 238 to 240 degrees. Add the pecans to the candy, and pull the pan off of the stove.
Continue to stir the candy vigorously with a wooden spoon until the candy cools, and the pecans remain suspended in the candy, about 2 minutes. Spoon the pralines out onto a parchment or aluminum foil lined sheet pan and cool completely before serving.
This recipe yields 12 (3-inch) pralines.
