1 ⅓ cups coarsely chopped pecans
1 ¼ cups butter, divided
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
2 cups white sugar
4 eggs
1 cup milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Combine pecans and 1/4 cup butter in a baking pan.
  • Bake pecans in the preheated oven until toasted and fragrant, about 20 minutes. Let cool.
  • Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
