  1. (Optional) Toast ½ cup pecan halves in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, or until fragrant. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  6. Brush each cake slice with 1 ½ teaspoons Kahlua (or more, to taste).
  7. In a chilled bowl, beat 1 cup heavy cream, 2 tablespoons powdered sugar, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Do not overbeat.
