Recipe: Praline and Carmel Sauce

Those that have requested this recipe here it is-Enjoy!!!!!!

I decided to make something very simple this year for Christmas neighbor and friend gifts.  As I was digging through my recipe box looking for my poppy seed bread recipe I ran across this recipe that I forgot I had.  If you are like me you LOVE anything with carmel.  This carmel sauce is perfect on ice cream.  The beauty about this is that they are quick and simple and made in the microwave. YUM YUM

I gave our friends the carmel sauce and some vanilla ice cream.  I am glad you guys like the sauce and for those of you that just gave the ice cream to the kids and ate the sauce right out of the container you just made my day. 

1 1/4 cups chopped pecans
7 Tablespoons butter (divided)
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
3 Tablespoons flour
3/4 cup light corn syrup
2/3 cup evaporated milk

Place chopped pecans in microwave dish with 3 Tablespoons butter.  Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring twice.  Watch the pecans closely.  You just want to roast them not burn them

In another microwave safe bowl place remaining butter and heat until melted.  Whisk in brown sugar, flour, and light corn syrup until blended.  Cook on high for 6 minutes, stirring twice, until the sugar is dissolved.

Add in 2/3 cup evaporated milk and the pecans, stir well

Pour into jars.  Keep sauce refrigerated and  reheat slightly in microwave to pour over ice cream. 

Makes 3 Cups.-YUM
