this is time consuming but worth the effort..i have made it 3 times as party favors for the holiday and dinner parties. make the praline nuts in advance and freeze until ready to use make sure you grease the tins well they are fabulous gifts that you can give in the tins wrapped with cellophane wrap with party tag and bow......enjoy
Praline-Pecan Cakes
Use the small disposable foil pans, available at the supermarket, for this recipe; the shiny surface (which reflects heat away from the pan) and the shorter bake time ensure the praline coating doesn't over-brown. Be sure to generously butter the pans before sprinkling with pecans. We used about 1/4 cup of softened butter to grease 9 (5- x 3-inch) pans.
Yield: Makes 9 (5-inch) loaves
