Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter
2 cups brown sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
2 cups chopped almonds
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking.
- In a saucepan, melt the butter, brown sugar, and corn syrup over medium heat, stirring until smooth.
- Bring the mixture to a boil and allow it to bubble for 4-5 minutes without stirring.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract, baking soda, and chopped almonds.
- Quickly pour the hot mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it evenly using a silicone spatula.
- Allow the praline mixture to cool completely until it hardens and becomes firm.
- Once cool, break the praline into shards and store them in an airtight container.
Notes
Experiment with different nuts like pecans, walnuts, or cashews in place of almonds.
For a richer flavor, drizzle melted chocolate over the cooled praline crunch.
Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder for a sweet-and-spicy version.
