Butter Pecan Cake

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.
