Recently I was introduced to Pecan Praline Candy.  The candy I had purchased was good, but I wanted something better. I wanted a pecan candy that would knock my socks off. I toyed around with several recipes, and added my own kick here and there. This recipe is definitely a winner with many of my close family and friends, and it’s extremely easy to follow. Give it a try!

          Don’t be mad at me hunny! LOL. It sounds like you didn’t cook it long enough, or you didn’t let the candy mixture get hot enough.

    ROSY, WHEN YOUR FANS TELL YOU THE PECAN PRALINE CANDY DID NOT FIRM UP,”TELL THEM IT IS A NICE CHEWY CANDY, FIRMS UP ONLY ENOUGH TO PICK IT UP.WHEN YOU BUY PECAN, THEY ARE CHEWY. AND SOFT/ PRALINES ARE NOT FIRM OR HARD

    I AM TRYING YOUR RECIPE AND WILL LET YOU KNOW THE RESULTS..
