I've never made pralines before - isn't there difficulty trying to beat the mixture with the pecans in it?

The pecans should be chopped......I forgot to add that..... that way it is easier to beat..

Pralines are the simplest candies there is to make. Here in MS they charge an arm and leg for one box or even just one. True, they are sweet but ooooooh so good.
