List of Ingredients




30 Pralines

3 c Sugar, divided
1 c Light Cream
1/4 ts Salt
2 tb Butter or Margarine
2 ts Vanilla
2 c Pecan Halves


Recipe



Combine 2 cups sugar, cream, salt, and butter in a large saucepan over low
heat, stirring frequently. In a small saucepan, melt remaining 1 cup sugar
over low heat. Pour the melted sugar into the hot sugar-cream mixture very
slowly, stirring constantly. Cook over medium-high heat until candy
thermometer reads 236F degrees (syrup forms a soft ball in cold water).

Remove from heat and stir in vanilla and nuts. Beat until mixture begins
to thicken. Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of mixture onto aluminum foil or wax
paper. All to cool and set. When pralines are firm, remove from foil or
paper.
