For an extra layer of flavor, try toasting the pecans before chopping. This will enhance their nutty flavor and add a pleasant crunch. If you prefer a less sweet cake, you can reduce the amount of sugar by 1/4 cup. Feel free to add other nuts or dried fruits to the batter, such as walnuts, raisins, or cranberries. This cake is delicious with a classic cream cheese frosting, but it also pairs well with a simple vanilla glaze or a dusting of powdered sugar.
