DIRECTIONS

  1. BEGIN BY MAKING THE BUTTERED PECANS. IN A MEDIUM HEAVY SKILLET, MELT 2 TBSP OF THE SOFTENED BUTTER OVER MEDIUM HEAT. ADD THE PECAN HALVES AND COOK, STIRRING VERY OFTEN FOR 3-5 MINUTES OR UNTIL LIGHTLY TOASTED AND FRAGRANT, TAKING CARE NOT TO BURN.
  2. REMOVE FROM HEAT AND ALLOW TO COOL FOR 5 MINUTES. FINELY CHOP AND SET ASIDE.
  3. PREHEAT OVEN TO 350 F. SPRAY A 10-CUP BUNDT PAN GENEROUSLY WITH NON-STICK COOKING SPRAY AND SET ASIDE. IN THE BOWL OF A STAND MIXER, COMBINE THE REMAINING 8 TBSP OF SOFTENED BUTTER, THE MELTED SMITH’S BUTTER PECAN ICE CREAM, SUGAR AND SALT.
  4. MIX ON LOW SPEED UNTIL COMBINED, THEN MIX ON MEDIUM SPEED FOR 1 MINUTE. WITH THE MIXER ON LOW SPEED, ADD THE EGGS ONE AT A TIME, THEN ADD THE VANILLA EXTRACT. IN A MEDIUM BOWL, COMBINE THE BAKING POWDER WITH THE ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR AND 1 CUP OF THE FINELY CHOPPED BUTTERED PECANS. GRADUALLY ADD THE DRY INGREDIENTS TO THE MIXER AND MIX ON LOW SPEED UNTIL COMBINED, THEN BEAT FOR 2 MINUTES ON MEDIUM SPEED.
  5. POUR BATTER INTO PREPARED PAN AND SMOOTH INTO AN EVEN LAYER. BAKE IN THE PREHEATED OVEN FOR 55 – 65 MINUTES OR UNTIL A TOOTHPICK INSERTED IN THE CENTER COMES OUT CLEAN. ALLOW TO COOL IN PAN FOR 10 MINUTES, THEN TURN OUT ONTO A WIRE RACK TO COOL COMPLETELY.
  6. MEANWHILE, MAKE THE DRIZZLE: ADD MELTED BUTTER, SMITH’S HALF & HALF AND PREPARED CARAMEL ICE CREAM TOPPING TO A MEDIUM BOWL. USING AN ELECTRIC MIXER OR A WHISK, COMBINE UNTIL SMOOTH. GRADUALLY ADD THE CONFECTIONER’S SUGAR AND BEAT UNTIL SMOOTH AND CREAMY, 45-60 SECONDS.
  7. DRIZZLE OVER THE COOLED CAKE ALLOWING ICING TO RUN DOWN THE SIDES OF THE CAKE. SPRINKLE THE TOP OF THE CAKE WITH THE RESERVED 1 CUP OF FINELY CHOPPED BUTTERED Pecans.
