This Brown Sugar Pecan Pound Cake Recipe is really good. It’s so dense, it’s so buttery…and while it’s not overly sweet, believe me when I say that a little bit goes a long way! So slice it small and enjoy it, with or without the glaze!

Just editing these pics makes me so hungry for this Brown Sugar Pecan Pound Cake Recipe, I really love pecans and I could practically taste them while looking at that gorgeous icing! Are you a fan of pecans? I am not quite sure that this recipe would work the same with an alternate nut, but I would really love to hear if you try a substitution!
