Microwave Buttermilk Pralines Recipes

Steps:

• In a deep, microwave-safe bowl, mix together brown sugar, whipping cream, and corn syrup. Microwave on High for 13 minutes.
• Mix in butter until well blended. Then stir, stir, and stir until mixture begins to cool and get creamy. Stir in chopped nuts. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto waxed paper to cool.

Steps:

• Combine sugar, soda, buttermilk and butter in large (3-4 quart) microwave or glass bowl. Microwave 5 minutes on medium, uncovered, to melt. Stir until butter is blended. Microwave on medium, uncovered, for 22-25 minutes or until soft ball stage. Add vanilla, beat with mixer until mixture forms soft peaks. Mix in pecans before finishing beating, if desired. Drop by teaspoons onto wax paper to make patties. If you prefer to have the pecans on top, place them on at this point instead of mixing them in before. If it gets stiff while dropping, heat briefly in the microwave. Cool until firm. Store in airtight container.

Steps:

• Use your favorite pot that is large enough to prevent boilovers as the candy does need a lot of room to bubble up.
• Pour the buttermilk, sugar, and baking soda in the pot.
• Stir the mixture until the sugar is completely dissolved.
• Place the pot on low to medium burner and let the candy boil to a soft ball stage, stirring constantly all the while.
• The mixture will turn a brownish color but don't worry; it's supposed to.
• Once the soft ball stage is reached,then add two cups pecan halves, a teaspoon of vanilla and butter.
• Beat the mixture until it becomes glossy and starts to get very thick.
• Quickly spoon it onto greased wax paper making little patties.
• If you like and have time before the candy hardens, you can turn the pecan halves right side up which makes the patties look prettier.
• Let the candy completely cool before removing it from the paper.
• Should the mixture harden before you've had time to get it all onto the paper, return it to the heat for a few seconds, or until it is again of the right consistency.

Steps:

• Line two baking sheets with waxed paper; set aside. In a microwave-safe 2-qt. bowl, combine the sugars, water, corn syrup and butter. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 4 minutes; stir until sugar is dissolved. Cook 1-2 minutes longer or until a candy thermometer reads 234° (soft-ball stage), stirring after each minute., Add pecans and vanilla; stir just until mixture starts to thicken, about 1 minute. Working quickly, drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto prepared pans. Flatten slightly. Let stand until set. Store in an airtight container.

• Remove from microwave and let rest 1 minute, then stir in vanilla; continue stirring with wooden spoon for 3 minutes more.
• Drop by teaspoonfuls onto buttered waxed paper (if the mixture is "runny" allow to cool about 30 seconds more and then try dropping from the spoon again).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Spread pecans out on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until fragrant. Set aside.
• In a saucepan, stir together the confectioners' sugar, white sugar, buttermilk, heavy cream, butter, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat. When the mixture begins to boil, start stirring gently with a wooden spoon, and continue cooking until the mixture is slightly above the soft ball stage to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
• Remove from heat, and stir in baking soda and vanilla. The mixture will expand some while stirring. Cool for 10 to 15 minutes, then stir in pecans. Keep stirring with a wooden spoon until the mixture loses its gloss. Drop teaspoonfuls of the mixture onto parchment paper that has been coated with butter flavored non-stick spray. Allow to cool completely.

Steps:

• combine all except for vanilla extract in a microwave safe 1 quart bowl or measuring cup.
• Microwave on high for about 6 minutes, stirring every 2 minute.
• Add Vanilla extract and stir quickly.
• Drop by teaspoonfuls onto waxed paper and allow to harden.
• If it sets up too fast while in the bowl just add a bit of evaporated milk.
• My problem was always spooning them out before the sugary mixture was thick enough or had cooled enough. I solved that by stirring quickly and checking to see if it starts to harden around the edges of my spoon or bowl. That's when it's ready to spoon out. It's very humid here so unsure how different climates will affect the outcome.
