This is such an easy dessert.

This cake is seriously yummy. Served hot or cold, it's a great little dessert. We love the sweet and crunchy pecan pie topping. The pecan pie filling cooks into the butter cake giving the dessert a nice, chewy texture. Cut into bars, place on a plate and watch these disappear.
