Preheat your oven to the temperature indicated on the butter pecan cake mix box, usually around 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, combine the butter pecan cake mix, one cup of water, ⅓ cup of vegetable oil, and three large eggs. Mix until smooth.
Pour the prepared cake batter into your greased baking dish. Bake according to the package directions, typically for about 30 minutes.
Once baked, let it cool slightly for about 10-15 minutes. Then, poke holes all over the surface of the cake with a fork.
Carefully pour the praline sauce over the warm cake and ensure it seeps into all the holes.
Place the cake in the refrigerator for at least two hours to allow the flavors to meld.
In a separate bowl, whip one cup of heavy cream and ¼ cup of powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
Spread the whipped cream evenly over the chilled cake and sprinkle with ½ cup of chopped pecans.

Use high-quality ingredients for the best results. Allow the cake to cool slightly before adding the praline sauce for better absorption.
