Frequently Asked Questions about Pecan Praline Brownies
Can I useunsalted butterin these brownies?
Yes. The taste will be fine with either salted or unsalted.
Can I substitutevegetable oilfor the butter?
Yes. I like the flavor of the butter, but the oil will make extrafudgy brownies.
What is the best way to cut thesePraline Brownies neatly?
The first step in being able to cut any pan of brownies neatly is to line your dish withparchment paper. Being able to lift the cool pan of brownies out whole helps with cutting. The next trick is to use a warm, clean knife. I typically run my knife under hot water before each cut; dry it off on a paper towel and slice. Any brownie that clings to the knife, I wash off with the warm water before the next cut.
Can I use whole pecans since pralines typically use large pieces?
You can, but do note that it will be more difficult to slice the brownies neatly. I prefer the smaller pieces for this particular recipe.
