Comment préparer Pecan Delights

In a large saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, 1/4 cup light corn syrup, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture begins to simmer.
Gradually whisk in 1/4 cup milk, ensuring it's fully incorporated before adding more.
Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until a candy thermometer registers 248°F (firm-ball stage).
Remove from heat and immediately stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Gently fold in 1 cup pecan halves.
Drop by rounded tablespoons onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Refrigerate until completely firm (at least 30 minutes).
Carefully peel the candies from the parchment paper.
Melt 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon shortening together in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Alternatively, melt in a double boiler.
Drizzle the melted chocolate over each pecan cluster.
Allow the chocolate to set completely before serving or storing.
