Steps to make Chocolate Praline Layer Cake:

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.

Pecan praline topping: Place pecan pieces and pecan halves in separate bowl and set aside. Assembly: Place a cake layer on a serving plate and remove the parchment. Spread half of pecan pieces caramel evenly on the surface of the cake. For this decadent chocolate-praline cake, sandwich a homemade chocolate ganache between chocolate cake layers, spread the remaining ganache over the sides of the cake, and top with creamy praline frosting. Add powdered sugar and vanilla; beat until stiff peaks form.
