    This sounds decadent. Nothing better than cream cheese and pecans. Yummers and a very high 5.

    So not to have so much contrast in textures, it is an idea to ground the chopped pecans before adding them to the cream cheese mixture. It would even have a better look to have ground pecan garnish the sides of the cake as well.
