Pecan Pralines 
Prep time :
30 minutes
Yield :
2 dozen
INGREDIENTS
- 2 tablespoons sweet butter, softened
- 2 cups Imperial Sugar Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
- 2 to 3 tablespoons water or more
- 1 pound pecan halves
DIRECTIONS
- Brush a marble slab or cool, smooth work surface with softened butter.
- Dissolve sugar in water in a heavy saucepan set over medium heat.
- Boil syrup until it becomes thick and clear and reaches thread-stage (223°F to 234°F on a candy thermometer). Add pecan halves and stir constantly with a wooden spoon until nuts absorb syrup and begin to crackle.
- Remove pan from heat and continue to stir pecans until they are dry.
- Return pan to heat and stir constantly (adding a drop of water to moisten, if necessary) until pecans are glazed and their coating is golden brown.
- Turn nuts out onto buttered slab, let stand for a minute and then separate them with a spatula.
- When cooled, separate any nuts that have stuck together and store in an airtight bag at room temperature.
