I just saw your recipe today and immediately went to my kitchen and made them! They were total perfection! How easy and they are delicious. I used about 1/4 tsp of maple extract and 3/4 tsp of vanilla extract and the flavor was amazing. Thank you so much for such a time-saving recipe!

What an incredible goof on the rest of the cooking world! I tried this recipe last night for the first time and my pralines were BETTER than anything I have ever eaten. OMG. Easy, FAST, foolproof. I cut down on the sugar but it hurt nothing and I used walnuts because I had no pecans. But OH how wonderful they are. This Chef has truly pulled the rug out from under all the stuffed shirt cooks who have long complicated recipes with thermometers and warnings and other crap and their pralines are no better. Toya you are a wonderful person to share this recipe and this recipe is just great!

Yasss girl!
Im from south Louisiana so I grew up eating these. My grandma used to always say if ure pralines are shiny, then you know you did them right. This is one of the first recipes I see on here that you have nice shiny pralines. 👍🏻😁
I’m going to give this one a try! THANKS

Fantastic! Until I found this method my pralines always turned into rock candy. They came out perfect this time! Thanks so much for sharing this - you're a great teacher.

Tonya, happy to have found you. You take the intimidation out of making pralines - my husband's favorite! I'm on my way to the kitchen to stir these up and can't wait to check out your other recipes. Your simplification of the processes are amazing and even though I've been cooking for many years I find I still have things to learn. Thanks.
