SWEET TOPPING ESSENTIALS: PRALINE CRUNCH
This is an easy topping to put together, and is great to sprinkle on things like a freshly-baked pumpkin pie or cheesecake, or even a nice big bowl of vanilla ice cream. In my case, I am using them as a crunchy topping to my citronfromage dessert. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.
