I made this in a bundt pan it came out beautiful. I entered this in my county fair and it won 1st place! I now have to make another because I didn't even get to taste the first one I made. When I made it for the fair, that was the first time I had made it.

My family LOVED this cake, even though I over baked it. It was a tad dry but that was my fault. Even so, I was asked for the recipe by 2 people. Next time I will not overbake it it. I added a splash of vanilla extract to the frosting, Yum!

It was buttery..pecanny (haha!) and my family loved it. I didn't have a lot of time to make frosting..Ijust added a couple of cups of Cool Whip to a canof vanilla frosting. The cake wasn't too sweet. It was perfect.

Sorry but this was one of the worst cakes I've ever made...super dry and reminiscent of pancakes. I made no substitutions in the recipe.

I am only rating the cake, as I used a different icing. I substituted vanilla soymilk for regular milk (since I was out), and added half the amount of vanilla extract. The cake layers were fluffy and light, and perfectly moist. Very nicely sweetened, maybe a little too sweet, and only because I used flavored soymilk. My mom raved, and everyone else loved it. So good.

I Looove this cake. I make it a lot...I am a cake decorator and once someone samples this cake..it becomes their go to cake for anything!! The only changes I suggest..for a lighter, more airy texture is to use self-rising flour and omit the backing powder...or use cake flour...i believe 1 cup AP flour = 1 cup + 1 TB of cake flour. Anyways...great cake!! I looove it with a caramel filling and butter frosting or caramel icing too...yummm~!

This cake was good, but I used wheat flour and it made it more dense and dry. It wasn't as popular as the pies. I would use regular flour next time and would make sure to buy a sifter to sift the flour first.

I found the layers of this cake to be quite dry. The frosting was excellent and the cake had a good flavor but still not moist at all.

This turned out great. I'm a wedding cake designer and I will use this recipe again and again. If overbaked the cake can be a lil dry otherwise I really recomend the cake. Thankyou for sharing this one.

This cake was great - easy to make, not too sweet and the exact right balance of moisture. I can't comment on the icing because I made it for a class and had to use the Wilton icing, but I'll definitely make the cake again and again.

My friend loves butter pecan or praline everything, so I decided to make this for her. It turned out great, especially the batter! Straight out of the oven it smelled like IHOP pecan pancakes, and it had a texture like fluffy banana nut bread. I thought the icing was a nice complement to the cake, and altogether it's so sweet and rich I can only eat a piece or two a day, instead of marathon cake binges-- which is a good thing. :) Definitely will be making this again.

This cake and frosting was incredible! The flavor was great. I should have used a little oil in the batter to make it a little more moist, and I needed to crumble the pecans more. But everyone was going back for seconds.

I tried this cake and it was absolutely fantastic. The cake has the flavor of my favorite ice cream, Buttered pecan. I got rave reviews from my family when I made this cake for my mom's birthday.

This is a wonderful cake. I made it for my dad's birthday and everyone loved it. I frosted it with a caramel frosting (butter, brown sugar, conf. sugar)- the one listed didn't look very interesting to me. It was a perfect combination.
