How To Make quick southern pralines
-
1Mix sugars, small pudding mix, milk and butter in a medium sauce pan
-
2Cook over low heat until it comes to a boil. Continue cooking gently until the soft-ball stage (about 10 minutes). You must stir it constantly to keep from sticking.
-
3Stir in nuts and vanilla extract.

4Remove from heat and beat until mixture begins to thicken. It will still be a bit thin. Drop by tablespoon onto parchment paper to cool. If it gets too thick, reheat it until it gets thinner. Cool.
