MAPLE PRALINES
I first made these as a teenager using the 1940 Edition of the Prudence Penny cookbook published by the San Francisco Examiner. I loved them then, and still do now! A pretty easy way to ease into candymaking. Cooking time is cooling time.

MAPLE PRALINES
This recipe rekindles memories of my grandfather and his love for making maple syrup. When I was in college, my mother would send me a package of her pralines during sugaring season. They were so popular with my friends, I barely managed to tuck away a few for myself.

MAPLE PRALINE BACON
I recently took a weekend trip, and I experienced one of the best meals of my life at a fine little establishment that specializes in Southern cuisine. One of the things that made this meal so memorable was the praline bacon that I had, so I took it upon myself to recreate it. The only difference is that I like mine better.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (135 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels.
- Spread the pecans onto an unlined baking sheet, and toast 7 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden brown and aromatic. Watch the nuts carefully as they bake, because they burn quickly. Set aside to cool.
- Stir the maple syrup, butter, brown sugar, and white sugar together in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the hot candy resembles foamy caramel and a candy thermometer reads 270 degrees F (130 degrees C) (soft crack stage). Quickly stir in the pecans.
- Toss the bacon in the candy mixture to coat each strip, and remove with tongs to cool and harden on the prepared baking sheet. Last but not least... eat up!

VERMONT MAPLE BREAD PUDDING WITH WALNUT PRALINE
There are few things better than rich and custardy bread pudding topped with sweet and sticky praline, but pair this dessert with vanilla ice cream and you've reached nirvana. Another option: skip the ice cream and serve this dish for brunch. If you need to accommodate a nut allergy, just leave the walnuts out; the caramelized sugar topping will provide plenty of crunch.

Steps:
- Coat a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray. Stir the sugar and water in a heavy small saucepan over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Increase the heat to high and boil without stirring until the mixture turns deep amber color, occasionally swirling the pan and brushing down the sides with a wet pastry brush, about 7 minutes. Stir in the nuts. Quickly spread the mixture on the prepared sheet. Cool, then chop the praline into small pieces.
- Whisk the eggs, cream, sugar, 1 cup maple syrup, and the vanilla in a large bowl to blend. Add the brioche; stir to coat. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Butter a 13 by 9-inch baking dish. Transfer the bread mixture to the prepared dish. Bake until puffed and golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Cool slightly.
- Cut pudding into 6 to 8 pieces. Place 1 piece on each plate. Place a scoop of ice cream atop the pudding, drizzle with maple syrup, sprinkle with praline, and serve.
- The PRALINE can be made 1 day ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.
