Notes
To keep your Praline Crunch fresh, store it in an airtight container at room temperature. It should last for about two weeks. Just make sure it’s fully cooled before placing it in the container. For extra flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of sea salt before baking. If you don’t have pecans, you can substitute them with almonds, walnuts, or any nuts you prefer. Stir the mixture every five minutes while baking to ensure even browning.
