What makes this cake so incredibly moist? It's the frosting that is baked right in with the cake mix!

YOU MUST USE BUNDT PAN. I DON'T SPRINKLE PECANS ON BOTTOM OF PAN, I DO USE MARGARINE AND THEN FLOUR THE PAN. I COOK AT 350 DEGREES FOR 45 MINUTES. MOST HELPFUL HINT: DO WAIT TIL CAKE COMPLETELY COOLS BEFORE FLIPPING IT OVER. THIS KEEPS IT FROM TEARING. SPRINKLE WITH POWDERED SUGAR AFTER IT IS COMPLETELY COOLED... THIS IS A SUPER GREAT RECIPE.

Cake batter was very thin...was concerned even as I was putting into the oven. The cake had a great flavor but it was extremely crumbly. I couldn't even cut a piece without it falling apart. If I try again, I would cut eggs back to 3 and probably just use 1/2 cup of water.
