Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a bowl, combine brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon; mix with an electric mixer until sugar clumps are broken up. Add melted butter; mix until thoroughly blended. Stir in pecans by hand. Set the streusel filling aside. (10 minutes)

03

Step

In a large bowl, blend sifted flour, baking powder, and salt together. In a second large bowl, combine sugar, shortening, and eggs; mix with an electric mixer until thoroughly combined. Add milk and mix on low speed. Stir in dry ingredients until just combined. (15 minutes)

04

Step

Spread 1/4 of the batter into each of the prepared cake pans and sprinkle 1/4 of the streusel filling over each. Repeat once more, spreading layers evenly. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes.

For an extra touch of flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batter.
Make sure your shortening is at room temperature for easier mixing.
Feel free to substitute walnuts for pecans in the streusel topping.
For a glaze, whisk together powdered sugar with a bit of milk or lemon juice and drizzle over the cooled cake.
