By KDudek88

Ingredients

• Cake:
• 2 sticks butter
• 4 eggs
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup flour
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• Frosting:
• 1/2 cup butter
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/3 cup evaporated fat-free milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans

Preparation

Step 1

For the Cake:
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar. Add the eggs and beat until very fluffy. Stir in flour and vanilla. Pour batter into a well-greased & floured 9-inch cake pan. Bake in an oven preheated to 350 degrees for 22-25 minutes, or just until the cake springs back to the touch. Remove from oven, invert onto a cake pan, use a drinking straw to poke several holes in the cake. Drizzle warm frosting on top of warm cake. Serve warm.

For the Frosting:
In a medium pot, melt the butter and brown sugar over medium heat. Bring mixture to a boil and whisk in the evaporated milk. Bring just to a boil, then remove from heat and stir in pecans. Drizzle over cake.
