Ingredients

2 cups baking mix (such as Bisquick ®)
½ cup brown sugar
¾ cup chopped pecans
2 tablespoons instant coffee granules
1 large egg
1 cup butter flavored shortening, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup buttermilk
¼ cup brown sugar
¼ cup chopped pecans
¼ cup graham cracker crumbs
¼ cup softened butter

Steps:

Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch square cake pan.
Mix baking mix, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 3/4 cup chopped pecans, and the instant coffee granules in a large bowl. Whisk together the egg, shortening, buttermilk, and vanilla in a separate large bowl. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing just until completely moistened.
Pour batter into prepared pan. Mix remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup chopped pecans, and the graham cracker crumbs in a small bowl. Sprinkle topping evenly over batter.
Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20 to 25 minutes. Immediately dot top of cake with softened butter.
