  1. My whole family loved this cake! My grocery store didn't have butter pecan cake mix, so I used a butter flavored golden cake mix instead and it worked great! Naturally it would have had a more intense pecan flavor if I'd have used pecan cake mix, but didn't really miss it. The butterscoth flavor is what we really loved! Thank you for this easy yummy cake!
     
  2. This cake had a great flavor, but totally fell apart when I took it out of the pan. I will try it again though because it tasted great! Thanks for posting! EDITED Jan 19, 2008 - Tried again but this time greased the pan with Kittencal's #78579 and the cake came out of the pan WITHOUT falling apart!
     
  3. Give your cousin a pat on the back because this cake is great! I did sub applesauce for half the oil to reduce the fat a little but besides that I made as directed. Thanks Harley for this yummy treat!
     
  4. The cake came out of the pan very nicely, the flavor was wonderful, the cake was moist, and we enjoyed it very much, I will probably make it again. My only drawback is I agree with one of the other reviewers, that it was not "pound cake" like enough for me. Like I said, we enjoyed the cake very much, but next time I will bake it in a 9x13 or 2 9inch rounds. Thanks for sharing!
     
  5. Since this got rave reviews, I thought I couldn't miss. But, apparently I did something wrong. It was very gooey, and not "pound cake" enough for me. It was toooo heavy. I didn't even serve it. My son and I tried it...and had to throw it out.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a newlywed living in beautiful Virginia with my husband and 3 doggies. I'm a little on the hyper side and I am happiest playing hostess and cooking for a crowd! My kitchen is my domain and I find cooking to be very therapeutic. On a day off you might find me brewing a fresh pot of iced tea and hanging out in the kitchen either cleaning and organizing or tinkering with recipes! I rarely follow favorite recipes to a "T", preferring instead to allow my creative side to take over. I especially love the holidays because it gives me even more of an excuse to bake! In the summertime I love visiting my mom and stepdad in the VA Beach area. I love the ocean and I love to go shopping with my mom!
