Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease just the bottom of a 10 inch tube pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter, 1 cup brown sugar and white sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in vanilla. Dissolve the coffee crystals in water, and stir into the creamed mixture until blended. Stir together the flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt; stir into the batter until just incorporated. Fold in pecans. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan.
- Bake for about 55 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool cake in pan on a wire rack.
- In a chilled bowl, stir together the heavy cream, salt, vanilla and remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar so that the sugar is dissolved. Whip using chilled beaters until stiff. Run a knife around the outer edge of the cake in the pan, and tap it out onto a serving plate. Make sure cake is completely cool before frosting. Decorate with pecan halves if you like.

[email protected]I had some trouble getting the cake to bake evenly. The edges were overcooked while the center was still undercooked. I think I might have needed to adjust the oven temperature or baking time.

[email protected]I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cake didn't turn out anything like the picture. It was dense and dry, and the praline filling was gritty.

[email protected]This cake was a disappointment. The praline filling was too runny and the glaze was too thick. The cake itself was also dry and crumbly.
