Southern pralines

Do you have a recipe that requires an antidote? I tapped into Julia Reed’s recipes again to create the perfect Southern pralines. I could not stop eating them!

The recipe includes brown sugar, white sugar, evaporated milk, pecans, butter, and vanilla. I have gotten good at cooking these ingredients into its luscious candy state, but I always have a few “ugly” pralines in the beginning because you must start scooping the mix into “cookies” at the perfect moment it starts to cool.

I can tell you now that I will never perfect this step because I cannot make these often! This time around I shared them with @vickinorthrop and @abrandt1026 so I did not go into a sugar coma. I appreciate I got a thumbs up on this classic Southern recipe!
