How can I get the glaze to be the perfect consistency?

If you want the glaze to be a bit thinner, add 1 more tablespoon of whole milk until desired consistency. Alternatively, if you want it thicker, sift in more powdered sugar little by little until desired thickness.

Why did my glaze melt?

Make sure you let your cake cool completely before adding the glaze! If you add it too soon while the cake is still warm, it’ll melt and run off the sides versus sitting on top.

Do you have to add pecans to this recipe?

The pecans are totally optional, but they add some nice crunch to the final cake! You can lay them on top as halves or crunch them up even more to sprinkle over top.
