Ingredients
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup Steen's Louisiana Cane Syrup
1/2 cup water
2 cups pecan halves
1/2 stick butter
1 tbsp vanilla
Preparation
In a heavy 3 qt saucepan, combine sugar, cane syrup, water and pecans.
Stir over medium heat until sugar is dissolved, and mixture comes to a boil.
Cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture reaches "soft ball" stage (a small
amount forms a soft ball when dropped into cold water).
Remove saucepan from heat, add butter and vanilla.
Allow candy to cool.
Whip until mixture gradually changes to lighter color and becomes creamy.
Drop by tablespoon on buttered cookie sheet. Push mixture from tablespoon with a teaspoon
to hasten dropping before praline becomes too firm to shape.
Yields 2 dozen.
