Texas-Style Beer Cake

Blogger Anna Ginsberg of Cookie Madness shares a favorite recipe. "This is a large cinnamon and nut packed cake that’s perfect dusted with a little powdered sugar and served with whipped cream and berries. The recipe calls for 1/2 cup of beer, and you can really taste it. Since I use Texas pecans and a Texas-brewed beer, I called it Texas-Style Beer Cake. You can name it after whatever beer you like!”
