How to toast pecans:
This recipe doesn’t call for toasting the pecans, but it’s a good thing to do if you want that little extra punch of flavor. There are a couple of ways to toast pecans. It’s very easy to do!
- Spread them on a baking sheet and roast them in a 350°F oven. This is the best method for toasting pecans if you want to toast a lot of them. I like to toast more than I need, and then store the rest of the toasted pecans in the freezer for adding to yogurt, etc.
- Toast them in a skillet over medium-high heat. This is the best method to use for this recipe, since you’re only toasting a smaller amount.
Is it okay to leave nuts out of this recipe?
Yes! I don’t always particularly care for nuts in recipes. Maybe you too? And many people are allergic. It’s completely okay to leave out the pecans in this dip. It won’t change the outcome much at all. And you can also substitute slivered almonds if you don’t care for pecans.
What kinds of things can you dip into Kahlua Dip?
- shortbread or gingerbread cookies

- chunks of angel food cake
- sliced bananas

Kahlua dip is decadent and creamy. If you like Kahlua, then you will definitely love this dip. It’s a great display dip for a party or a dessert board. Enjoy!
