📝 Preparation Steps
1
Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Stir together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, heavy cream, butter, corn syrup, cream of tartar, and salt in a 4-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture comes to a boil. Boil, stirring frequently, until a candy thermometer reads 238°, about 5 to ⏱️ 7 minutes. Remove from heat. Let cool for exactly ⏱️ 20 minutes.
2
Stir in vanilla and pecans, and continue to stir gently, just until the mixture begins to thicken and lose its gloss, 1 to ⏱️ 2 minutes. (Do not over-mix!) Working quickly, drop the pecan mixture by heaping tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle the tops of the pralines with sea salt. Let the pralines stand until cool, about ⏱️ 20 minutes.
