For best results, use room temperature eggs and sour cream.
To toast the pecans, spread them on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly browned. Alternatively, toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until fragrant.
The cake is even better the next day, after the flavors have had a chance to meld.
Feel free to substitute walnuts or other nuts for the pecans.
If you don't have sour cream, you can use plain Greek yogurt as a substitute.

    The almond extract really makes the flavor pop. I've made it with both pecans and walnuts, and both are delicious.

    The frosting is so rich and creamy. I like to add a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness.
