praline pecans
Sugar-coated tree nuts
Praline pecans are pecans coated in a caramelized sugar mixture, typically made with brown sugar, butter, and cream.
The coating hardens into a sweet, crunchy shell around the nuts.
They're a Southern American confection, often sold as snacks or gifts: We picked up some praline pecans at the airport in New Orleans.
