BUTTER PECAN PRALINE POKE CAKE

1. Bake your cake in the preheated oven for approximately 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The aroma of buttery pecans will fill your kitchen as it bakes.

Step 2 – Creating the Praline Sauce:

1. While your cake is baking, let’s prepare the irresistible praline sauce. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the 1/4 cup of butter until it’s smooth and golden.
2. Add the sweetened condensed milk to the melted butter, and stir continuously to create a velvety, creamy sauce. Allow it to gently simmer, enhancing the flavors.
3. Now, fold in the remaining 1/2 cup of chopped pecans, infusing your sauce with delightful nuttiness and texture.
4. Remove the praline sauce from heat, and set it aside until the cake is ready.

Step 3 – Assembling Your Masterpiece:

1. Once the cake has baked to perfection, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly.
2. Using the handle end of a wooden spoon, poke holes generously all over the cake. This is where the magic happens as these holes will cradle the luscious praline sauce.
3. Carefully pour the praline sauce you prepared earlier over the cake. Ensure that the sauce makes its way into the holes and cascades down the sides, creating a tantalizing, sweet sensation.
4. Allow your Butter Pecan Praline Poke Cake to cool completely. The cake will absorb the praline goodness, creating a symphony of flavors and textures.
