How to Make Tipsy Party Pecans
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
- In a large saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup light corn syrup, 1/4 cup bourbon, 1/4 cup water, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and boil for 3-4 minutes, stirring continuously, until the mixture reaches 240°F (115°C) on a candy thermometer (soft-ball stage).
- Remove from heat and stir in 4 cups pecan halves until evenly coated.
- Spread the pecans in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the pecans are golden brown and crispy, stirring halfway through.
- Let the pecans cool completely on a wire rack before storing.
- Store cooled pecans in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
