1 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups sugar
2 tablespoons corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
1 1/2 cups pecans, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Don't be afraid to use a lot of strength after you remove the mixture from the heat and beat in the pecans, butter and vanilla--it helps to get the cooling process going and incorporates some air to get that slightly fudgy consistency. As an alternative, instead of chopping and stirring in the pecans, leave them as halves. Spoon the pralines onto the baking sheets and top each one with a pecan half.
