Butter Pecan Cake topped with a scoop of ice cream.

Butter-Pecan Cake I

This is the easiest and best cake. It doesn't even need icing.

Ingredients

1 pkg Betty Crocker Butter Pecan Cake Mix (or spice cake mix)

1 cup water
3/4 cup cooking oil
4 eggs
1 container coconut-pecan frosting (the kind you use to frost a German Choc. cake)

Directions

Mix all ingredients well. Pour into tube pan or bundt pan and bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hour.

I have made this with a German chocolate cake mix but the butter pecan cake mix is best.

This is great! Very moist! A lady at the supermarket told me about this recipe and how much she and her husband liked it so much, so I got a box of cake mix, but no recipe for it was on the box. I started looking online and found your recipe and knew it was the one she had told me about. Thanks!
