prawlin

Noun

praline (countable and uncountable, plural pralines)

1. A confection made from almonds and other nuts, caramelized sugar, and sometimes milk or cream.
   • A typical praline is roundish, about three inches in diameter and a half-inch thick. The taste is faintly regressive, reminiscent of the pleasure to be found in a peanut butter and jelly sandwich when one is ravenously hungry.1992 March 15, Frances Frank Marcus, “A Sweet Pleasure From New Orleans: The Praline”, in The New York Times, →ISSN
