Butter Pecan Cake

BUTTER PECAN CAKE

INGREDIENTS:

1 Box Pillsbury Butter Pecan Cake Mix           4 Eggs
3/4 cup oil                                                            1 cup water
1 can Pillsbury coconut pecan icing                 1 cup chopped pecans
Powdered sugar

Beat cake mix, water, oil and eggs in large bowl on low speed 30 seconds. Add coconut pecan icing and beat on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Spray bundt pan with Pam or Baker's Joy spray and sprinkle with powdered sugar adding pecans to bundt pan. Pour cake batter mixture into bundt pan and bake in a 350 degree oven for 50 to 55 minutes until done checking by inserting a toothpick into center and comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes before removing from pan.

I enjoy doing recipes from "scratch" but there is nothing wrong with cakes made from mixes if they are super charged like this one. The coconut pecan icing added to the cake batter and sprinkling of chopped pecans onto the bundt cake pan takes this cake to the next level of taste enhancement!

Following pixs taken along the way baking this cake this evening while "bird dogging" a 50 lb. batch of my Venison Cajun Blend Porter's Summer Sausage in my smoker. The telephone rang while in the midst of getting my pixs and got side tracked or derailed is more appropriate and left a few pixs out of the sequence.

Already chopped the pecans and substituted Betty Crocker since our local IGA did not have the Pillsbury butter pecan in stock.

The little Kitchen Aid hand mixer at work again.

About ready for the cake pan.

Bundt pan sprayed down with Baker's Joy, sprinkled with 10x powdered sugar and chopped pecans added. This cast aluminum bundt pan is several decades old but still going strong!

Can you say "beautimous"

The cook's portion ready for a sampling!
