List of Ingredients




1-1/2 cups unsalted butter, softened
2-1/4 cups packed brown sugar
5 large eggs, room temperature
2 tsp vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup sour cream
Glaze
3 Tbsp unsalted butter
1/4 cup chopped pecans
1 cup powdered sugar
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
dash salt
2 to 3 Tbsp half-and-half

Recipe



Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 10-in fluted tube pan.

Beat butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. In another bowl, whisk flour, baking powder and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with sour cream, beating after each addition just until combined.

Transfer batter to prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 55-65 minutes. Cool in pan 10 minutes before removing to a rack.

For glaze, combine butter and pecans in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, until butter is golden brown, 4-5 minutes. Stir into powdered sugar. Add vanilla, salt and enough cream to reach a drizzling consistency. Drizzle over cake. Let stand until set.
