Do not attempt this cake without a heavy duty mixer.It's a lot of work, but my family did love it. The icing is runny and the layer of icing disappeared when i put the top layer on. I wound up chilling the icing to get it firm. Next time i will chill the icing prior to assembly. Be warned that this recipe is VERY time consuming.

very good. I, too, folded the pecans into the batter. But next time I will decrease the amount of pecans.
