In another small bowl, combine with a fork, softened butter, brown sugar, and pecans. Mixture will have the consistency of wet sand.
Pour half of the bread mixture into a 8×8 inch pan. Top with half the pecan mixture. Spoon remaining bread mixture over and top with remaining pecan mixture. Press down into pan slightly. Pan will be really full. Top with remaining pecan mixture.
