Step 1: Prepare the Cake Batter
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, oil, water, eggs, and coconut pecan frosting. Mix until the batter is smooth and well-blended.
Step 2: Add the Pecans
Fold in ½ cup of finely chopped pecans for extra crunch and flavor.
Step 3: Bake
Pour the batter into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 4: Make the Praline Topping
While the cake is still warm, melt butter and sweetened condensed milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly until the butter has melted. Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup chopped pecans.
Step 5: Finish and Serve
Pour the warm topping over the freshly baked cake. Let it soak in slightly for that rich praline texture.
