Title: Pecan Pralines
Categories: Nuts, Dairy, Candy
Yield: 2 1/4 pounds

3 ts Butter
1/2 c Butter; in cubes
2 c Sugar
1 c Packed brown sugar
1 c Half & Half cream
1/2 c Sweetened condensed milk
1 tb Light corn syrup
ds Salt
3 c Pecan halves
1/2 ts Vanilla extract

Line 3 baking sheets with foil and grease the foil with
1 teaspoon butter each; set aside.

In a large heavy saucepan over medium heat, melt cubed
butter. Stir in sugars, cream, milk, corn syrup and
salt; cook and stir until mixture comes to a boil. Cook,
stirring occasionally, until a candy thermometer reads
236┬║F/113┬║C (soft-ball stage), about 20 minutes.

Remove from heat; stir in pecans and vanilla. Cool,
without stirring, to 170┬║F/77┬║C, about 20 minutes. Stir
with a wooden spoon until mixture just begins to thicken
but is still glossy, about 2 minutes.

Quickly drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto prepared
baking sheets. Let stand until pralines are set and no
longer glossy. Refrigerate until completely set, about 1
hour.

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
