- Remove saucepan from heat; add margarine and vanilla.
- Allow candy to cool.
- Whip until mixture gradually changes to lighter color and becomes creamy.
- Drop by tablespoons onto buttered cookie sheet (Push mixture from tablespoon with a teaspoon to hasten dropping before praline becomes too firm to shape).

Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Lay an 18-inch sheet of waxed paper or parchment paper on the countertop.
- Cut the butter into small pieces. Place the pieces of butter on a plate and put the plate in the freezer while you heat the ingredients.
- In a heavy medium saucepan, add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and evaporated milk.
- Place the pan over medium heat, whisk to blend, and cook until the mixture reaches the soft-ball stage or 235 F when measured with a candy thermometer.
- Immediately remove the pan from the burner and stir in the frozen butter with a wooden spoon.
- Add the pecans and vanilla and continue stirring with a wooden spoon until the mixture is no longer shiny and thickens but is not too stiff. The candy should spread slightly when you spoon it onto the paper.
- Use a tablespoon to spoon mounds of the candy onto the waxed paper or parchment, making sure that there are pecans in each praline.
- Let the candy stand at room temperature until firm, about 30 minutes.
