Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  • Stir in the vanilla and buttermilk until well combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and chopped pecans. Gradually add to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Add a drizzle of caramel on top for extra sweetness, or serve it with whipped cream.
