Cake 10: Butter Pecan with cream cheese frosting

I’ll admit, I thought Butter Pecan was just for ice cream. I now see this differently. It makes a very good cake! Kind of like french vanilla meets maple syrup. How can that go wrong? Butter Pecan always reminds me of my Dad because he loves that kind of ice cream. I’m not in charge of dessert tonight for the family dinner, but I’ll take Dad a piece of this to take home. My sister says she has a Bailey’s Irish Cream Cake. Can’t wait to try that! I think my YEAR OF CAKE celebration might be rubbing off on people. By the way, my recipe for the cream cheese frosting can be found here: http://www.kraftbrands.com/philly/recipes/Pages/Recipe-Detail.aspx?recipeId=50972

I doubled the recipe because I LOVE FROSTING. And I don’t care who knows it. I’m also a big fan of Easter Bunnies–this one was waiting for me at Target. Because I like to keep families together, I also bought his siblings in green, yellow, and pink. Perhaps they will appear in an upcoming picture!
