Pecan Pralines

What you need: 

1 cup brown vegan sugar, firmly packed
1 cup white vegan sugar
3/4 stick non-hydrogenated vegan margarine
1/4 cup white corn syrup (like Karo)
5 tablespoon water or rice or vegan soy milk
dash salt
1 1/2 to 2 cup pecan pieces
1 tablespoon vanilla

What you do: 

Cook all ingredients except pecans and vanilla in a saucepan until they come to a rolling boil. Boil for one minute, remove from heat and add pecans and vanilla. stir rapidly with a spoon as long as you can keep it up--candy will lose its translusence and get thick and stiff. drop by spoonful onto waxed paper and cool. Thats it!

Preparation Time: 
30 min

SO HOW'D IT GO?

Did not set. Followed directions exactly. I believe using a candy thermometer would yield much better results. The upside is we have pecan caramel sauce to top off our soy ice cream.

It depends on what kind of corn syrup you want to substitute for.

For Dark Corn Syrup, you can substitute:

~ 3/4 a cup of light corn syrup, plus 1/4 cup of molasses.

For Light Corn Syrup, you can substitute:

~ 1 cup of dark corn syrup

~ 1 cup of treacle

~ 1 cup of liquid glucose

~ 1 cup of honey (if you eat that)

~ or 1 cup of granulated white sugar (but be sure to increase the liquid in the recipe by 1/4 of a cup).

I hope that helps!

Good luck with your recipe 2monkeys!
