Ingredients

Scale

Butter Pecan Pound Cake Ingredients

  • 1 box Butter Pecan cake mix
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 (16-oz) can Coconut Pecan frosting


Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350ºF (175ºC). Grease a Bundt pan thoroughly with cooking spray to ensure the cake releases easily after baking.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Butter Pecan cake mix, water, vegetable oil, eggs, and the entire can of coconut pecan frosting. Use a handheld mixer to beat the mixture until it becomes smooth and well incorporated, ensuring an even batter.
  3. Pour Batter: Pour the smooth batter evenly into the prepared Bundt pan, spreading gently if needed.
  4. Bake the Cake: Place the pan in the oven and bake for approximately 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, indicating the cake is cooked through.
  5. Cool and Remove from Pan: Once done, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then invert the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely before serving, allowing the flavors to set perfectly.

Notes

  • Make sure to grease the Bundt pan well to prevent sticking.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the cake tender.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before slicing to maintain its shape.
  • For extra flavor, you can add chopped pecans to the batter.
  • This cake pairs wonderfully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
