Time 3h50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons butter
1 ½ cups pecan pieces
2 cups white sugar
1 cup butter
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon butter extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
6 ½ cups confectioners' sugar

⅔ cup butter, softened
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
½ teaspoon almond extract
1 tablespoon milk, or more as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a small, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add pecans and cook until toasted, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
