Been down in Louisiana for the past few weeks and spent some time to learn to make pralines from a colleagues wife. I can't get enough of this stuff and pecan season is upon us!
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup evaporated milk
1-teaspoon vanilla extract
1-heaping tablespoon butter
1-cup of crushed pecans
cook milk and sugars on low heat until 240 degrees (soft ball, use a candy thermometor) stirring constantly. remove from heat add vanilla, pecans & butter. stir( whip) with a heavy spoon until glossy sheen is gone.. spoon onto wax paper....should harden in 15 to 20 minutes. Fat free HAHA
