This is a delicious rich and moist cake! When I made it, the recipe did not have any sugar in the batter -- so I guessed at one cup. It turned out great, and really has a nice flavor and is a snap to make. Thanks, Tracy for sharing the recipe. -
the smell that this cake makes when cooking is unbelievable, it even got the kids out of their rooms to investigate and like tracy says, it is rich. i used walnuts instead of pecans and they were quite good

I am a married mom of two, a 10 yr old daughter and a 17 month old son. I love to cook and bake. I have a little chi dog named Babydog Graves and he is about 6 pounds, full grown, my buddy! I dream of one day my hubby and I taking a trip to Jamaica and having a romantic time. I enjoy being a full time stay at home mom and wife to a terrific man.
