Ingredients
1 cup chopped pecans
1 box of yellow cake mix (or butter cake mix)
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, melted
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat the Oven:
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter to prevent the cake from sticking.
Layer the Pecan Base:
Evenly spread the chopped pecans at the bottom of the greased baking dish. This will form the delicious, nutty base for your cake.
Combine the Wet Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, brown sugar, vanilla extract, and optional cinnamon. Stir until well combined.
