Butter Pecan Cake - (WASC method)

For a baby shower the Mommy-to-Be requested something with Bavarian cream filling but preferred white cake over chocolate. I did some experimenting and paired butter pecan cake with a cream cheese and pudding based Bavarian Cream. The butter pecan flavoring can be ordered online. I originally found it at a bulk food store and I always use 1/8 tsp in my butter cream icing.
