Ingredients

The Cake

  • 15.25 ounce Betty Crocker Butter Pecan Cake Mix
  • 15.5 ounce Coconut Pecan Frosting
  • 4 Eggs lightly beaten
  • 2 cups of Applesauce or ½ vegetable oil
  • ½ cup of Chopped Pecans

Praline Glaze

  • 14 ounce Sweetened Condensed Milk
  • 3 tablespoons Butter
  • ½ cup of Chopped Pecans

Instructions

Butter Pecan Pound Cake

  • Preheat oven to 350°F
  • Add all of the cake ingredients, except the pecans, to a mixing bowl and combine with an electric hand mixer. Next, add the pecans and stir or mix in.
  • Prepare a bundt cake pan by spraying with a non-stick baking spray and evenly pour the batter in around the pan.
  • Place into the oven and bake for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. (My cake took exactly 50 minutes but ovens can vary).
  • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning out onto a cake plate; allow the cake to then cool completely.

Pecan Praline Glaze

  • Melt the butter in a sauce pan over medium low heat then add the sweetened condensed milk and stir or whisk until combines. Slow heat through just until you see it about to bubble and remove from the heat.
  • Next, add the chopped pecans and stir to combine.
  • Allow the glaze to cool for about 5 minutes then spoon over the cake. (You may not need all of the glaze depending on how much you like)

Notes

The cake may be stored covered in the refrigerator up to a week.
