For a deeper flavor, toast the pecans lightly before chopping. Substitute walnuts for pecans, or use a combination of both. Ensure the butter for the cake is softened, but not melted, for optimal creaming. Be careful not to overbake the cake, as it can become dry. Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
