  • Well, it was good, but way too rich for us. Christmas will be brownies with cinnamon and chipotle powder, and pumpkin mousse.
  • My, my my.....so it is true?! Everything IS bigger in Texas:D.
    That's some recipe and it looks like the finished cake lives up to the hype:).
    Were you and yours able to wait to the end of the meal to sample it?
  • The cake recipe is used in a few different from scratch cakes that I make. The buttermilk is the ingredient for a moist cake. I think that you will be very pleased.
  • I like the Texas shapes better anyway. Great job! Glad that WLTwo's surgery was successful. Have a great Thanksgiving!
  • Here 'tis:




    The pie custard is rich but not particularly sweet. No idea what the cake tastes like, but I used butter only, not half butter/half shortening, so I know it's richer, too.

    The pie crust leaves were not gonna happen, since I have no leaf cookie cutter and can't draw. But I did have a Texas shaped cookie cutter, and the pecans are from Texas, so there ya are.
  • OMG, that looks heavenly! Not even going to think about how many pounds it would put on!!!
