Here is a recipe that I have used many times - it is wonderful!
Doris's Praline's
4 cups sugar
4 Tbs white corn syrup
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 can water
1 tsp vanilla
5 cups pecans
1 Tbs butter
1. Mix all ingredients except butter, vanilla and pecans. Cook on low heat until mixture forms a soft ball in cold water. Remove from heat. Add butter, vanilla, and pecans, and beat until mixture holds its shape. Spoon onto buttered wax paper (add old newspaper under the wax paper). If candy gets hard before all is spooned out, add a little water, and heat again. Or you can let is stand on low heat while spooning out.
