Provided by รก-153

Number Of Ingredients 17

CAKE:
1-1/4 cups butter, softened, divided
2 cups chopped pecans
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup milk
FROSTING:
2 pkg. (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
1 cup butter, softened
1 pkg (2 pounds) confectioners' sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 to 3 tbls. milk
2/3 cup chopped pecans, toasted

Steps:

  • 1) In a small heavy skillet, melt 1/4 cup butter. Add pecans, cook over medium heat until toasted, about 4 minutes. Spread on foil to cool. 2) In a large mixing bowl, cream sugar and remaining butter. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with milk. Beat just until combined. Fold in pecans. Pour into three greased 9-in. round baking pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely. 3) For frosting, in a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter, confectioners' sugar and vanilla. Beat in enough milk to achieve spreading consistency. Spread frosting between layers and over top and sides of cake. Sprinkle with pecans. Store in refrigerator.

I'm not a big fan of nuts, but I really enjoyed this cake. The pecans were toasted perfectly and they added a nice crunch. The cake itself was moist and flavorful. I'll definitely be making this again.

I had some trouble getting the cake to rise properly. I think I might have overmixed the batter. Other than that, the cake was delicious.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time I make it.

This cake was a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some extra butter or milk next time I make it.
