Instructions to make Chocolate Praline Layer Cake:
  1. Heat oven to 325°F. In a small heavy sauce pan, combine butter, 1/4 c heavy whipping cream and brown sugar. Cook over low heat just until butter is melted, stirring occasionally. Pour into two 8 or 9 since round cake pans; sprinkle evenly with chopped pecans. I sprayed my pans with non stick spay and lined with parchment paper before spraying again.
  2. In a large bowl, combine cake mix, water, oil, and eggs; beat at low speed until moistened. Beat 2 mins at medium speed. Carefully spoon batter over pecan mixture.
  3. Bake at 325°F for 35-45 mins or until cake springs back when touched lightly in center. Cool 5 mins; remove from pans. Cool 1 hour or until completely cooled.
  4. In a small bowl, beat 1 3/4 cups heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form. Add powdered sugar and vanilla; beat until stiff peaks form.
  5. To assemble cake, place 1 layer on serving plate, praline side up. Spread with half of toping mixture. Top with second layer, praline side up, spread with remaining topping mixture. Garnish with pecan halves and chocolate curls. Store in refrigerator.
