I followed this recipe exactly, just baked for 45 minutes as suggested by other reviews. It set up completely and wasn't runny. Next time I will add more nuts and corn syrup,if a dessert is sweet I like it REALLY sweet. I could not find Butter Pecan Cake so I used Chocolate mix, it was very good. Never would have thought of it if I didn't see it here. Thanks

I love the concept of this recipe. However, it wasn't as good as I thought it would be after reading so many rave reviews. I think the biggest problem I have with it is the texture. So many previous reviewers mentioned the gooiness. Personally, I just think it's half-raw when baked as directed. I left it in an additional 10 minutes but couldn't wait any longer to take it out to make room for the Thanksgiving turkey. I think it could have stayed in another 10-15 minutes and I would have liked it better. I did like the outside edges as they were more "done" than the center. No one ate the center of the cake. If I try it again, I'll bake it a LOT longer, though I don't think I'll be making it again.

I made this of the great reviews that it got and I love trying new recipes. I made this for work and they loved it. Hubby loved it also. It's rich and sinful, just like a pecan pie, but better becauset there's no crust to make! Thanks for the recipe!

Oh my goodness!!! This cake is delicious! I made it for a family reunion using the butter pecan cake mix in a 9x13 pan. They were scraping the pan clean. The second baking I cooked a full 35 minutes then set it out to cool. It firmed up perfectly. Would not change a single thing. Thanks so much

upped the bake time by about 20-25 minutes. I used one bowl for both layers..don't worry if its not perfectly mixed in (I had chunks on my cake after pouring on layer 2) but it turned out SPECTACULAR!! Exactly what you'd expect from a cake with 2 cups sugar and a cup corn syrup!!

This cake is awesome! I don't even like pecan pie that much, but I LOVE this cake. My mom, who loves pecan pie, said she likes it even better than pecan pie. I added 1 cup of chocolate chips to the filling like someone suggested previously, and that was really good! I cooked it about 10 minutes longer on the final bake time, and I think next time I will cook it even longer. It is very rich and delicious. My family has requested that I make it at least once a month!

I just made this cake yesterday and it is delicious! It is exactly like what you would think, a pecan pie mixed with a cake! When you pour the liquid mixture over the already cooked cake, it might take a minute, but it completely sinks into it and the cake even looks like it is floating a little. I made it in an 8x11 dish because my 9x13 was missing. Even thought it came out pretty good anyway I would not recommend using anything other than a 9x13. I ended up having to cook mine a lot longer (like 20 minutes longer) and I don't think it came out as evenly cooked as it could have. And it also barely fit in the 8x11 dish. But it was still really good and I will definitely make it again soon!!!

Absolutely delicious! I rarely have "flops", but I was convinced this was going to be one when it came out of the oven all wiggly and jiggly. But it set up and when we tasted it, we loved it!

After the second baking period, the top of this cake still looked WET! Helpfully, I had read the other reviews talking about the "ooey-gooey" consistency, so I baked mine another 20-25 minutes, until the top looked cooked. It was exactly like a pecan pie without the crust, nothing runny or "ooey" about it. Wonderful recipe, but I think you will enjoy it better if you double that second baking time.

My husband is a Pecan Pie Lover!!! So when I told him about Pecan Pie Cake he had his doubts, but after tasting it (3 servings) of it this is now his favorite!!!! The only thing I changed was, I used halfed Pecan instead of chopped.

This is a wonderful recipe. As others stated it is gooey and somewhat difficult to serve. I also had a difficult time finding the cake mix. I used Betty Crocker Butter Pecan Cake Mix.

I have not made this particular cake but I made one similar several years ago. I cannot find the butter pecan cake mix made by Duncan Hines I think or any other brand. What is the name of the brand you use and where do you find it?
