PRALINE GLAZED CAKE OR MUFFIN TOPPING image

I created this glaze for my Banana Glazed Praline Topped Nut Bread using Ginger Ale. It was awesome. It was over the top good. This recipe is only enough for a Bundt cake or loaf cake, but if you wanted too you could double the recipe, I am sure with great results. Just know that you need to work quickly so that it doesn't...
