For an extra nutty flavor, toast the pecans lightly before adding them to the cake. If you don't have evaporated milk, you can substitute with half-and-half or whole milk, but the caramel may be slightly less thick. Let the cake cool completely before cutting to ensure the caramel has set properly. A sprinkle of sea salt on top of the cooled cake enhances the sweetness and adds a gourmet touch.
