I haven't tried these yet but they sound so good! I found this recipe in Paula's book Paula Deen Celebrates. Here is her description of the recipe: This is an old-fashioned boiled cookie. I cut these into very tiny pieces, as they are very sweet, like a praline. Ingredients:
4 eggs |
1 lb light brown sugar |
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 1/2 cups pecans, chopped |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray and dust with flour.
3. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk.
4. Stir in the brown sugar until smooth.
5. Pour into the top of a double boiler.
6. Cook the mixture over simmering water for 20 minutes, stirring constantly, until it reaches the soft boil stage on a candy thermometer, 240 degrees.
7. Let cool for 5 minutes.
8. Sift the flour and baking powder together then stir it into the cooked mixture.
9. Add vanilla and pecans.
10. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and place the pan in the oven.
11. Bake for 12 minutes.
12. Allow to cool completely in the pan before cutting into pieces.
13. Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
