Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine butter, heavy cream, and erythritol sweetener over medium heat. Stir continually until the butter melts and the erythritol is dissolved completely.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil and let it simmer for about 3-4 minutes, ensuring it doesn't burn. Stir continuously until it thickens slightly.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt. Mix well.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
Slowly pour the melted chocolate into the heavy cream mixture while stirring continuously to ensure a smooth blend.
Stir in the chopped pecans, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Spoon small mounds of the praline mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Shape into little praline discs using the back of the spoon.
Allow the pralines to cool at room temperature for about 10 minutes before transferring them to the refrigerator.
Chill the pralines in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to set completely.
Once set, remove from the refrigerator and enjoy these delightful low-carb chocolate pralines. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.
