- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup evaporated milk
- 1/4 cup frozen orange juice concentrate
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups pecan halves or pieces
- Line 12 muffin cups with square sheets of waxed paper.
- Heat white sugar, brown sugar, evaporated milk, and frozen orange juice concentrate together in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over low heat; cook and stir until sugar dissolves, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir vanilla extract into the sugar mixture. Fold pecan pieces through the mixture. Cook without stirring until the mixture reaches a temperature of 235 degrees F (113 degrees C), 5 to 10 minutes; remove from heat immediately.
- Stir candy mixture until it begins to turn opaque and stiff but can still be spooned easily; spoon into prepared muffin cups.
- Cool pralines completely before serving.
