I have made this recipe for years. It never had pecans or a glaze until I decided it would be awesome to add the pecans and finish it with this glaze concoction. It is especially delicious with a cup of coffee and a great holiday cake recipe.

The cake is tender and moist inside with a slight crust on the outside. Poured over the top is a browned butter glaze that's almost like a cinnamon-flavored praline glaze. It is guaranteed to be a crowd-pleaser!
