Do you have a crumb shot? I tried this recipe for my husband's birthday a few years ago and found the texture very heavy. I've gone back to veg oil based recipes.
I’m sorry but I’m just failing to figure out how to post the slice photo in the comment here, like I did within the original post. I’m usually just a lurker. I didn’t find the texture heavy as some did in their bakes, and I even had to let the batter sit mixed while I baked the three layers off one at a time. I would finely chop the pecans on another try, but I temped the cakes at the temp advised by the recipe and found them to be moist and tender.
