Food and Recipes Dish Dips Pecan Praline Dip 5.0 (1) 1 Review You're not going to believe the decadence of our Pecan Praline Dip. It's the perfect dessert for a crowd, but you might want to double the recipe that already serves 8—we have a feeling they'll be going back for seconds. This recipe comes together in a flash. When preparing this dip, bring the light brown sugar, heavy cream, and salted butter to a boil. Once it's removed from the heat you'll add vanilla extract and salt. Transfer it to a mixing bowl, cover, and let it sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes. While the mixture sits, prepare the whipped cream. You'll fold the praline sauce into the whipped cream along with chopped toasted pecans. Now, we've got a finish that we know you'll love: Serve with vanilla wafers.
