Como fazer Old Fashioned Pralines

**Roast Pecans (Optional):** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread pecans on a baking sheet and roast for 8-10 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly browned. Let cool completely.
**Combine Ingredients:** In a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup light brown sugar, ½ cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup butter, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
**Reach Soft-Ball Stage:** Stir the mixture constantly, scraping down the sides of the pan as needed, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture reaches the soft-ball stage (235-240°F on a candy thermometer). This usually takes about 10-15 minutes.
**Remove from Heat & Incorporate Pecans:** Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in 1 cup of roasted pecans.
**Cool and Thicken:** Continue stirring until the mixture cools slightly, thickens, becomes creamy and loses its shine. The pecans should be evenly distributed throughout.
**Spoon and Set:** Drop rounded tablespoons of the praline mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or aluminum foil.
**Cool Completely:** Allow the pralines to cool and harden completely at room temperature (at least 2 hours) before serving.
