CREAMY PRALINES
3 cups sugar
1 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1 pinch salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 quart pecans
Combine sugar, buttermilk, corn syrup and salt in a very large pan (it
will foam considerably when soda is added) and bring to a boil. Add soda, stir
and cook until soft ball is formed when dropped in cold water (about 238 F. on
a candy thermometer). Add vanilla. Beat until color changes and candy thickens.
Stir in pecans. Drop by teaspoons on greased cookie sheet. Cool till set.
