Ingredients

Instructions

0 of 4 done
  1. Step 1

    Add sugar and sour cream (mind blown) to a medium saucepan. Stir over medium-high heat until combined.

  2. Step 2

    Continue stirring until mixture reaches a soft ball stage (240 degrees F). Note: You’ll want to use a candy thermometer to get this right. Once soft ball stage has been reached, remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon maple extract.

  3. Step 3

    Add 4 cups pecan halves to the mixture and stir to coat. Spread out on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet to cool.

  4. Step 4

    Once cool, break into small pieces and store in an air-tight container.
