Chocolate Pecan Cake image

What a cake! It's a moist and soft chocolate cake with a caramelized pecan icing. Pouring the icing over the warm cake makes it irresistible. This should definitely be served warm so the gooey frosting is at optimal gooeyness. Grab a glass of milk and enjoy.

This cake was a bit dry for my taste, but I think I might have overbaked it. I'll try again next time and see if I can get it right.
