Steps:
- Grease and flour three nine-inch round cake pans and preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cream the butter with both granulated sugar and light brown sugar until very light and fluffy, then add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Sift the flour with the baking powder, baking soda and salt and add to the batter alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry mixture. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Divide batter evenly among the prepared pans and bake in the center of the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in the center of the layers comes out clean. Cool layers in their pans over a rack for ten minutes, then loosen and turn out layers directly onto racks for cooling. Cool layers thoroughly before icing.
- For the icing, melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Remove from heat, then stir in granulated sugar and light brown sugar. (Sugars will not dissolve).
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the evaporated milk until smooth, then whisk this mixture into the saucepan with the sugar mixture. Return saucepan to a medium heat setting and cook, whisking constantly, until mixture is thick, shiny and caramel-like, about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and pecans.
- Cool icing to a good spreading consistency (about 30 minutes), then spread evenly between cooled cake layers and over the top and sides of the cake.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Butter 2 (9 by 5 by 3-inch) loaf pans, using the heaping tablespoon of the butter.
- Cream the remaining butter and the sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer on low speed until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula.
- In a separate mixing bowl, beat together the egg yolks with the vanilla until light and frothy. With the electric mixer on medium-low, gradually add the egg yolk mixture to the butter and sugar mixture and mix for about 4 minutes.
- In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. With the electric mixer on medium speed, alternately add the flour mixture, a third at a time, and the egg whites, a third at a time, to the butter and egg mixture, beating for 2 minutes between each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as you mix. Add the lemon zest during the last 2 minutes of mixing.
- Divide the batter equally between the pans. To 1 of the cakes, add the crumbled pralines and the rum to the batter and gently stir to mix evenly; leave the other plain. Bake the plain cake for about 1 hour, the praline cake for about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Both should be golden when done and firm to the touch.
- The cakes can be stored by wrapping them in waxed paper, then plastic wrap, then in foil. They do not need to be refrigerated.
- In a heavy saucepan, over medium heat, combine the sugar, brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, salt and condensed milk. With a wooden spoon, stir until the sugar dissolves. Continue to cook, stirring, until smooth and light brown, about 8 minutes. Add the vanilla and pecans and continue to cook, stirring, until the mixture reaches 234 to 240 degrees F. on a candy thermometer or the soft ball stage, that is, when a bit dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens. Remove from the heat and drop by the spoonful onto waxed paper. Let cool. Remove from the paper with a thin knife.
LOUISIANA PECAN PRALINE CAKE
To me, this cake fairly sings of Mardi Gras! I first tasted this cake when my niece's friend brought it to our family's Easter brunch, and I became obsessed with the need to have the recipe. I asked, cajoled, even begged but to no avail. My request had to go through my niece and I think my pleas lost something in the translation. Then, alas, the friend moved away, and I thought the recipe was gone for good. But as you see, I do now have the recipe and I am embarrassed to tell how easy it was to obtain. It was right there all the time, in the little recipe book that came with the the Praline Liqueur!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Grease and flour a tube or Bundt pan.
- Sprinkle 1/2 cup flour over the pecans and raisins in a large bowl and toss lightly.
- Add baking powder and nutmeg to rest of flour and reserve.
- At this point I like to beat the egg whites to soft peaks and reserve. Then I proceed without washing the beaters. Cream butter and sugar in another bowl. Blend in egg yolks. Add flour and Praline Liqueur alternately, ending with flour. Blend well.
- Pour batter over the nuts and raisins. Mix well. Fold in beaten egg whites.
- Pour into prepared tube or Bundt pan. Bake in preheated oven for 3 hours. Remove from oven.
- Let stand 1 hour. Turn onto cake rack. You may wish to dust with powdered sugar for presentation.
