Beat the butter in a stand mixer with a paddle attachment until very creamy and pale. Fold in the vanilla pulp and the liquid, cooled chocolate mixture. Stir in the chopped nuts and refrigerate for about 30-40 minutes until the mixture is almost firm yet still pourable. Whisk briefly again with a hand whisk. Pipe the mixture into a piping bag fitted with a smooth tip and fill 30 praline capsules. Place one pecan on each, chill for at least 2 hours until set.
