Recipe: Praline Sauce
- MAKE-AHEAD
- VEGETARIAN
Ingredients
- 2 cups pecans (7 ounces)
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup bourbon
- Preheat the oven to 350°. Spread the pecans on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes, or until browned and fragrant. Let cool, then coarsely chop the pecans.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar and water and cook over moderate heat without stirring, until a deep amber caramel forms, about 20 minutes. Gradually stir in the heavy cream and continue stirring to dissolve any lumps of caramel, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the bourbon and the pecans. Serve the sauce warm or at room temperature.
