During the Christmas season, give the gift of food...everybody's gotta eat y'all!
Southern Praline Pie...oh how Southerners love this sweet pie. Imagine the taste of fabulous praline candy found in the French Market of New Orleans. That's the flavors found in the Southern Praline Pie! The Praline Pie has a rich, dark, sugary, crunchy flavor and texture that is just delicious!
I love serving this pie to my guests...it is such a Southern favorite!
You can call it by the Mississippi-Louisiana name and pronounce it PRAW-LEAN or you can say PRAY-LEAN...either way, it tastes great!
