Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, granulated sugar, cream, milk, butter, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, to 230°F Lower heat slightly if the mixture threatens to boil over.
- Add the pecans and continue cooking, stirring constantly, to 236°F The mixture should form a soft ball when a little is dropped in cold water. Remove from the heat and add vanilla; let stand for about 5 minutes. Stir with a wooden spoon until the mixture is thickened and slightly creamy, about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes.
- Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, spoon the pralines onto a sheet of parchment paper or waxed paper. If the mixture becomes grainy, heat and stir over medium heat for a few seconds, or until it can be easily scooped and dropped.
- Optional Toasted Pecans:.
- Heat oven to 350°. Spread chopped pecans out on a large baking sheet. Bake for about 5 minutes, or until the chopped pecans are lightly browned and aromatic. This can also be achieved by microwaving pecans on a microwave-safe plate in 30 second increments.

CREOLE PRALINES
I got this recipe from a lady I used to work with many years ago when I lived in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, but I never had much luck making them as good as hers until I found a good method for making smooth, creamy pralines. Shirley Corriher of Atlanta, and author of the book, "Cookwise" recommends letting the praline mixture sit five minutes before "beating like crazy." This way, you'll get "billions of tiny crystals and perfectly smooth, creamy candy." Shirley oought to know - before discovering her love for cooking and writing "Cookwise," she was a biochemist at Vanderbilt, which helped her better understand the science behind cooking.

PECAN PRALINES, NEW ORLEANS SCHOOL OF COOKING
I bought pralines from New Orleans School of Cooking when my mother and sister and I visited there in 2012, and they were the BEST we tried - and we tried a lot!! When I came home I looked on line for the recipe, and found a video demo of the class on making pralines. I watched the video over and over until I got all the ingredients and instructions written down, which I submit here. Other recipes on this site recommend bourbon as flavoring, which I think sounds fab, so I noted it. I also added a dash of salt, as I always add a little salt to candy and frostings. I have not made these yet, but I'm posting it for safe-keeping.

- Spoon out on buttered aluminum foil or parchment paper.
