How to Make Granny Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 cups sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 cup evaporated milk, and 1/2 cup vegetable oil. Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts and 1/2 cup brown sugar. Sprinkle evenly over the batter in the prepared pan.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, prepare the topping: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup butter, 1/4 cup evaporated milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Bring the topping mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil for 1 minute.
- Immediately pour the hot topping evenly over the hot baked cake. Let cool completely before serving.
