1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 cup ground nutmeg
Dash of ground cloves
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
 
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup chopped pecans, toasted
FROSTING- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup maple syrup, 1 tbsp butter
Dash of salt, 2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp chopped pecans, toasted

Instructions
Preheat oven at 350. To prepare cake, coat 2 (8-inch) round metal cake pans with cooking spray. Line bottoms of pans with wax paper; coat with cooking spray. Dust each pan with 1 tsp flour. Weigh or lightly spoon 9 ounces flour (about 2 cups) into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine 9 oz flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves, stirring well with whisk.
Place 1 cup brown sugar and 1/2 cup butter in a large mixing bowl; beat with a mixer at medium-high speed until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes). Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in 1 tsp vanilla. Add flour mixture and buttermilk alternately to butter mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture and beating just until combined. Fold in 1/3 cups pecans. Divide batter evenly between prepared pans.
Bake at 350 for 24 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans 5 minutes on wire racks. Invert cake layers onto racks; cool completely. Discard wax paper. To prepare frosting, place 1/2 cup brown sugar, heavy whipping cream, maple syrup, 1 tbsp butter, and dash of salt in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat, bring to a boil, stirring just until sugar dissolves. Cook 3 minutes, without stirring. Scrape brown sugar mixture into a bowl. Add powdered sugar; beat with a mixer at high spped 2 minutes or until slightly cooled and thick. Beat in 1/2 tsp vanilla. Place 1 cake layer on a plate. Spread about 3/4 cup frosting evenly over 1 layer; top with second layer. Spread remaining frosting evenly over sides and top of cake. Sprinkle with 2 tbsp pecans. Lets cake stand until frosting sets.
