Chocolate Praline Torte

Cake:

1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter (no substitutes)
1/4 cup whipping cream
3/4 cup coarsely chopped pecans
1 box chocolate cake mix (Devil's Food works well)
water, eggs and oil as directed on cake mix

Topping:

1-3/4 cup whipping cream
1/4 cup confectioners sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
chocolate curls, optional

In saucepan, combine brown sugar, butter and cream.
Stir over low heat until butter is melted. Pour into
two greased 9-inch round cake pans. Sprinkle with
pecans and set aside.

Prepare cake mix according to package directions.
SLOWLY and carefully pour batter over pecans.

Bake at 325 Degrees F. for 35-45 minutes, or until
a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pans for 10
minutes; invert onto wire racks to cool completely.

For Topping: beat whipping cream until soft peaks
form. Add sugar and vanilla. Beat until stiff.

Place one layer of cake, pecan side up, on serving
