- ⅓ cup honey
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

- 3. Incorporating the Pecans Once the pecans have cooled, finely mince them and fold into the butter mixture using a spatula or spoon, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout.
- 4. Serving Transfer the Pecan Praline Delight Butter into a serving dish and serve at room temperature to maintain a spreadable consistency.
