Instead of 5 tablespoons of butter, I used 4 tablespoons of ghee and 1 tbsp butter. For the cream, I used coconut cream instead of dairy.

Servings: 10 pralines
Calories: 145
Ingredients
- 1 cup pecans toasted
- 5 tbsp butter divided
- 6 tbsp light cream (or heavy cream)
- 1/3 cup Joy Filled Eats Sweetener (or see alternatives in recipe notes)
- 1/4 tsp vanilla
- pinch of salt
Instructions
- Combine 4 tbsp of the butter with the sweetener and cream over medium heat. Stir until sweetener is dissolved.
- Cook until it is a deep golden brown. As soon as it reaches that deep color (right before burning) remove from the heat and immediately add the other 1 tbsp butter and vanilla. Stir until smooth.
- Add the salt and toasted pecans. Drop by spoonfuls onto on wax paper. Refrigerate just until firm.
Notes
To toast nuts:I toast nuts at 400 degrees until they are lightly browned and smell heavenly.
Notes on Sweeteners: Substitutions will work in most recipes. They may not work in candies, such as caramel. This is one recipe I do not recommend trying other sweeteners. I have only tested it with my own sweetener blend. I'm not sure if other sweeteners work.How to store pralines:Store at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage you can refrigerate the pralines but they will firm up more and turn whitish from the sweetener crystallizing. They are still delicious!
