Ingredients

  • 2 cups sugar

  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 cup light cream

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

  • 2 cups pecan halves

Directions

  1. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside. In a 3-quart saucepan, mix together sugar and baking soda. Add cream and place over medium-high heat. Cook, whisking occasionally, until golden brown and mixture reaches 235 degrees on a candy thermometer, 25 to 30 minutes. Add butter and pecans and mix together until butter has melted and mixture is well combined, about 1 minute. Using a tablespoon, drop mixture onto prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart; let cool completely.
