I had pralines in New Orleans and loved them, so I tried different combos and liked this one best.

Ingredients

1 ½ cups toasted pecans
1 ½ cups white sugar
¾ cup brown sugar
½ cup milk
⅜ cup butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Combine pecans, white sugar, brown sugar, milk, butter, and vanilla in a large saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil. Do not stir once mixture begins to boil. Heat to 240 degrees F (115 degrees C) or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from water and placed on a flat surface.
Drop by spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet. Let cool completely.
