Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups pecans halves
  • 0.5 cup brown sugar packed
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 box yellow cake mix regular size
  • 0.75 cup water
  • 0.5 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 12-cup bundt pan.
  • In a small bowl, mix together melted butter and brown sugar. Pour into the bottom of the prepared bundt pan. Arrange pecan halves on top of the mixture.
  • In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, water, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour the batter over the pecan mixture in the pan.
  • Bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate. Let it cool completely before slicing.

Notes

For best results, use fresh pecans. Serve with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgence.
