What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

I reduced sugar by almost one half and increase pecans to 1.5 lbs (about 6 cups) Use 11 x 17 sheet pan lined with parchment and stir half way through. Makes a great gift at the holidays!

This is the easiest and most yummy way to do them! I like to add them to a crumbled bleu cheese salad!

These are fabulous - and so easy to make! I used whole pecan halves to decorate a sweet potato cheesecake. I made 1/4 recipe and I wish I'd made more - I made them yesterday and the leftovers are already gone!
