Mini Pecan Cake with Maple Buttercream Frosting


Hello People!  The Milly & Grace Giveaway is off to a great start.  I'm loving all of your comments about what you would purchase, and now I want everything that you want.  Thanks for that.  You should know, by the way, that all clothing is 30% off right now with free shipping... get on that.   

So I promised you I would display something on my new cake stand.  Well, remember the gloriousness of this mini cake?  Yesterday I followed the same recipe, but threw in a tablespoon of toasted, chopped pecans.  Then I made a simple buttercream consisting of 3/4 cup powdered sugar, 3 T softened butter, a splash of cream and a splash of maple syrup.  A perfect individual cake for an autumn evening.  You should put on some sweats, cuddle with your cat, and eat it slowly while staring softly into space...
