This is a mandeltorte, except instead of almonds it is made with pecans, which would make it a pecannussetorte I guess. The cake is fluffy and moist with a nutty orange flavor that is amazing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used a springform pan<\/a> (aka removable ring or cheesecake pan), but you can also bake it in a loaf plan. Just be sure to leave extra aluminum foil on the edges to help remove it from the pan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If desired you can cut it into layers adding a filling such as orange curd<\/a> in between. I cannot cut even layers to save my life so I left it as is. Top it with whipped cream or frosting or a sprinkling of powdered sugar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Millican Pecan<\/a> began when E.E. Risien, founded the West Texas Pecan Nursery in the late 1800\u2019s at the junction of the San Saba and Colorado Rivers.  He received much recognition for his experiments that altered the course of the pecan industry and helped to establish San Saba as the \u201cPecan Capital of the World.\u201d From this location, they developed many great pecan varieties, as well as a prosperous orchard that serves our customers well, even to this day.  Today Millican Pecan is being run by the 5th generation, the one that launched the Millican Pecan website in 2002.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used their pecan meal and saved myself a step, but you can easily use whole pecans or pecan pieces and grind them up in a food processor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
