Instructions :
1st Step:
To start the preparation, you need to set the oven’s temp to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
2nd Step:
In a large bowl, combine the sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, and oil by whisking the ingredients together. After adding the eggs, stir everything up well.
3rd Step:
In a separate dish, combine the dry ingredients of baking powder, salt, and flour. To a large mixing basin, add the dry ingredients and the milk, and whisk until a smooth batter develops and no dry flour remains (some lumps are ok).
4th Step:
Combine the pecans with the toffee pieces by folding them in. Pour the batter into a generously buttered bundt pan. Cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes at 350 degrees.
5th Step:
Give it approximately half an hour to cool down. While everything is going on, prepare the praline caramel sauce. Over medium-high heat, combine the butter and the brown sugar and let it melt together.
6th Step:
Mix the cream into the sauce. While stirring constantly, bring the mixture up to a boil. When it has reached a boil, let it alone for a full minute without disturbing it while it is bubbling.
7th Step:
Turn off the heat and add the vanilla extract and the pecans, stirring constantly. Flip the heated cake over onto a platter, and then drizzle the caramel topping over the top.
