Annie's Pecan Pralines image

I have been making these pralines for 20 years. They are creamy, not sticky, and do not have that gritty sugar texture.

I'm not a huge fan of pralines, but these are pretty good. They're not too sweet and the pecans add a nice flavor.

These pralines are a bit too hard for my taste. I think I'll cook them for a little less time next time.

These pralines are a little too sweet for my taste, but they're still good. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
