Confection made with crushed nuts (7)
I believe the answer is:
praline
'confection made with crushed nuts' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for praline that I've seen before include "Nutty confection" , "confectionery" , "Plainer (anag.)" , "Sweet stuff" , "Chocolate filling of nuts and sugar" .)
