Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Pour batter into 3 greased and floured 9-inch round cake pans.

Bake at 350-degrees for 25 to 30 minutes or until tooth-pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes. Remove from pans and let cool completely on wire racks.

Spread Cream Cheese Frosting between layers and on top and sides of cake, then sprinkle 1/2 cup chopped pecans on top. Store in refrigerator. Makes one 3-layer cake.

For the Cream Cheese Frosting:

Mix all of the ingredients, except powdered sugar and vanilla, with electric mixer until smooth and fluffy.

Add powdered sugar and vanilla. Add enough half & half or milk to mix to spreading consistency.
