The pecan cake roll was a bit dry, but the cream cheese filling was delicious. I think I would add more butter to the cake batter next time.

I love pecan cake rolls, and this one did not disappoint! The cake was fluffy and moist, and the filling was rich and creamy. I used a store-bought cream cheese frosting instead of making my own, and it still turned out great.
