Tell you what you can do....spin them gently for a very short time and whoever makes cakes in your house, get them to incorporate the pecans into the next cake. They will also freeze very well, if you stick 'em in a baggie, suck the air out, and throw the baggie in the freezer. So the cake maker can use them in another cake, later! I can post a modified recipe for a Serbian moist apple cake, modified by Marie to use walnuts as well as the apples. Just switch to pecans instead of walnuts. Have fun!
