Walnut Praline Candies by Dale Matthews
  

Ingredients

1 cup brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
1 cup walnut
1/2 cup evaporated milk
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon honey

 

Original Pralines made with Pecans are traditional in the South. I grabbed a bag of nuts one day and did this recipe with Walnuts. Wow, turned out a little lighter and less sweet tasting. Great! Now I can eat more than one at a time. Pecans are too rich! Some original ingredients from Sara Dolezal, Allrecipes.com

Directions

  1. Combine sugars and milk in saucepan over medium heat. Stirring, with a wood spoon, to not scorch milk.
  2. Spray baking non-stick spray on cookie sheet or aluminium foil laid on top of thick towels.
  3. Once mixture boils, stir in butter, walnuts, spices and honey. Continue to heat, without stirring, until between 235 to 240 degrees F. (113 to 116 degrees C) Recommended you purchase a digital thermometer-great investiment!
  4. Once temperature has been reached, remove from heat and let cool 5 minutes.
  5. Beat until thickened until liquid poured from wooden spoon starts to pour slowly. Immediately drop by spoonfulls onto sprayed cookie sheet or foil.
  6. Let cool and freeze in small bags of 3 to 4 per bag. THESE ARE SOO GOOD YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO EAT JUST ONE!
