    Starting August with Butter Pecan Bundt Cake, a delicious southern dessert!

    Can you believe Summer 2022 is almost over? I get so excited to plan any special event and I am thrilled to share some of my tips and recipes from my summer classes at the Gardendale Library.

    “Oceans of possibilities” is this summer’s Library theme at Jefferson County, Alabama. Therefore, I’ve decided to make the theme “Let’s Sea what we can cook up with a box cake mix” contest. There are oceans of possibilities when it comes to cooking and entertaining. I love how you can create so many delicious desserts from a cake mix box. Altogether, we had a wonderful time with our contest creations!


    A Pleasant Encounter

    As a food enthusiast, I’m always eager to learn, create and cook new recipes. One morning in Walmart while running errands, I’ve encountered another customer and started talking about baking. She was so kind for giving me a recipe for a butter pecan cake with frosting that I prepared in my class at the library later on.

    Also, you’ll find a copy of the recipe on a cute recipe card which makes the perfect favor for your guest as well.


    Let’s Sea What We Can Cook Up

    Let's Sea What we can cook up contest
    Our Cooking contest for the month of July

    Why Will You Will Love This Recipe?

    As a matter of fact, who doesn’t like a moist fluffy Bundt cake with a cup coffee? All it takes is a few ingredients, a bit of mixing, around 45 baking minutes, and lastly a layer of frosting… Et voilà, you got yourself a scrumptious Bundt pecan cake. Piece of cake (No pun intended)!


    Let’s Go Through a few pros

    You might think that buying a cake mix box will limit your cooking options. In fact, it’s the other way around, you can add your personal favorite frosting to the mix.

    In addition, Bundt cakes are known for their moist texture. So obviously a slice of a moist fluffy cake is worth preparing. Don’t you agree?

    Lastly, let’s talk about pecans, the recipe’s stars. This unique nut has a distinctly sweet and buttery flavor. They basically add an incredible touch to the whole mix, especially when it comes to flavors. Yummy!


    Tips & Tricks

    Any specific tips and tricks for this buttery pecan Bundt cake? In contrast to other recipes, this one is a classic, so there’s not much to do. However, you can always:

    • Reduce the oil quantity to ½ cup or even ¾ cup if you don’t like super moist cakes.
    • Grease your cake pan well. Pay extra attention to this step as its crucial for obtaining a solid one-piece cake.
    • Get creative and create a glaze with pecans.
    • Go an extra mile and toss the pecans in a flour bowl before adding them to the mixture so they don’t sink and are evenly distributed.
    • Bring the ingredients to room temperature, especially eggs. This will allow the mixer not to overwork the batter.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I use a different frosting?

    No, the texture of the coconut pecan goes perfectly with the butter pecan cake mix.

    Can I use a smaller amount of oil?

    Yes, you can reduce the oil to ½ cup on this cake if it is too moist for you.

    Can you use this recipe with a different cake mix?

    I haven’t tried it yet, but I am interested in creating a different version of this recipe because it is very moist and good.


    What Will You Need to Make This Recipe?

    This might be the simplest, easiest recipe to prepare when craving something sweet. The dry ingredients are available on the supermarkets’ shelves. Consequently, you’re technically halfway there.

      I can’t remember coming across a Betty Crocker Butter Pecan cake mix. Looks super moist and delicious. The pan you baked it in, gives your cake a unique textural design. Thanks for sharing such a simple and easy recipe; the kids will love making it.
