Butter Pecan Gooey Cake
“I baked this cake for a dinner I was serving for 22 guests with another back-up dessert for variety. This cake is delicious! My usually very controlled and calorie conscious friend actually had two servings and left with your recipe in hand. Everyone loved it! This will be a go-to recipe at my house and I placed a yellow sticky smiley face on my printed copy. This recipe is also extra easy to make with only 7 ingredients. Thanks for sharing!” - Ida

Butter Pecan Cake
“This is one of the best cakes I have ever had! It was so good in fact, that I had to get it out of the house so I would not eat it all! I did, however, add ½ cup more pecans so that I would have some for the icing. Also, if you prefer thick icing (like I do) you might want to double the icing recipe.” - Kitchen Crew
Apple Butter Pecan Cupcakes with Caramel Butter Cream
“Apple butter is a favorite treat for me at breakfast time on a hot buttered English Muffin or a hot buttered biscuit fresh out of the oven. It's also useful in baking cakes and breads, adding moisture and reducing fat. These cupcakes were wonderful even with the very rich frosting. Sorry couldn't reduce the fat there!” - Diane
