TEXAS PECAN CANDY CAKE
Found this in Southern Living Magazine probably 15 years ago. I have made it several times. It is very sweet. But very delicious. Cut it into very thin slices.

This cake should be made at least two weeks ahead to allow the flavors to blend. Hint: I cheat and use the date pieces coated with sugar (instead of regular pitted dates), just taking off most of the sugar by rubbing them in my hands.

TEXAS CANDY CAKE
Not your grandmother's fruit cake.... Even people who hate fruit cake love this.... The two-week "setting period" is a must.... Keeps up to or beyond a month in an air-tight container, in the refrigerator.
