Pecan Pie Cake

I am actually ashamed of my lack of posting. Not that anyone else really reads this. Bowever, I do enjoy posting and sharing my recipes.

I decided to try to conquer a box full of recipes. I stuck my hand in and pulled out around 5 different recipes. I chose this one to bake. Super easy. Ingredients can easily be found if not already on hand. It was baked yesterday. I believe the taste is even better today. This recipes appears several times on the internet. It is very good. Love the pecan pie taste.

Hope you enjoy-

Pecan Pie Cake

1 package yellow cake mix
1/2 cup butter, melted
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups light corn syrup
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
2 cups pecans, chopped

Heat oven to 325. Place cake mix, melted butter and 1 egg in large bowl. Beat on low speed until well combined, about 30 seconds. Measure out 2/3 cup batter; set aside. Spread remaining batter in bottom of ungreased 13x9-inch baking dish. Bake for 15 minutes or until top lightly browns and puffs up.

Remove dish to wire rack and cool for 10 minutes. Leave oven on. Place reserved 2/3cup batter, corn syrup, sugar, remaining 3 eggs and vanilla in large bowl.

Beat on low speed for 1 minute. Scrape down sides. Beat on medium until well combined, about 1 minute. Fold in pecans. Pour mixture on top of warm cake in baking dish, gently smooth out evenly over cake. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until edges are browned but middle is still soft. Remove to wire rack, and cool 30 minutes. Slice.
