1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Topping:
1 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:
Bake the Cake: Preheat your oven and prepare the butter pecan cake mix according to the package instructions. Stir in the chopped pecans. Pour the batter into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish and bake as directed. Once baked, remove from the oven and allow it to cool slightly.
Prepare the Praline Sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar and heavy cream. Bring to a boil and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Poke the Cake: Using the handle of a wooden spoon, poke holes all over the warm cake. Pour the praline sauce evenly over the cake, allowing it to seep into the holes. Let the cake cool completely.
Make the Whipped Topping: In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
Assemble & Serve: Spread the whipped cream evenly over the cooled cake. Sprinkle the chopped pecans on top.
