CREAMY PECAN PRALINES
Steps:
- Mix light brown sugar, granulated sugar, heavy cream, butter, water and salt in a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until sugar dissolves. Stir in pecans and cook over medium heat until mixture reaches the soft ball stage, 238 to 240 degrees F on a candy thermometer. If you spoon a drop of boiling syrup into a cup of ice water, it will form a soft ball that flattens easily between your fingers.
- Remove pan from heat and stir rapidly until mixture thickens. Drop pralines by the spoonfuls, 1-inch apart onto parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Let cool completely until firm. Store in an airtight container.
SOUTHERN PECAN CANDY
Unlike traditional pralines, this recipe is spread in a pan, then cut into squares. It is loaded with pecans and has the same sweet taste as pralines. The candy was in my mother's recipe collection and dates back to 1941.-June Moffett, Santa Ana, California

PECAN CREAM MINTS
Fancy mints. These are no cook; the cook time is time to harden. Liquid egg whites from a carton work great for splitting the recipe for two different flavor mints from the same batch. I put 1 1/2 tablespoons liquid egg whites and 1/4 teaspoon extract in each bowl with half of the cream and half of the sugar.
