TEXAS PECAN PRALINES RECIPE: HOW TO MAKE IT



Texas Pecan Pralines Recipe: How to Make It image

My pecan praline recipe is special to me for I received it from my mother, who was an excellent cook! I also am a Texas Aggie Mom and I use pecans from a South Texas Aggie grower that our Aggie Mom's club has purchased from for many years. The quality is outstanding and far better than you will find in any grocery store. —Carol Jones, Blue Ridge, Texas
