Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Grease a 13 x 9 pan. In large bowl beat eggs, then add oil and sugar, stir until well blended. Stir in remaining ingredients and blend thoroughly. Pour batter into pan. Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes until cake begins to pull away from the sides of pan. Cool.
For The Icing
Melt butter in saucepan over medium low heat. Stir in brown sugar, cook and stir for 2 minutes. Add milk and continue cooking until mixture boils, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and gradually stir in powdered sugar. Add vanilla and blend well. Spread over cooled cake. If icing gets to thick, add a little milk and blend well. Garnish with pecan halves if desired.
