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.
