2009-01-25T03:24:00Z

I made this for a potluck this evening and EVERYBODY loved it! Seriously, I saw people going back for thirds!

This is the ultimate chocolate lovers cake.

I can’t wait to try the other versions of this cake.

Thanks Paula!

Lemon Icebox Pie

I had a request from a church member to make a Lemon Icebox Pie. I looked on the internet and found several, but I’d like a recipie from real person who has actually used it; not from a cyber cook.

CHOCOLATE FLAN CAKE

2009-03-07T21:35:24Z

1/2 cup sugar
5 eggs
1 can condensed milk
1 can La Lechera*
1 can Media Crema*
3 drops vanilla
1 box Devil’s Food cake mix

**These can be found at Safeway or most Mexican food specialty shops.

Grease and flour a bundt pan. Melt the sugar in a heavy pan - do not burn! Pour into bundt pan and turn to spread evenly. In blender, mix eggs, condensed milk, La Lechera, Media Crema, and vanilla. Pour over sugar in bundt pan.

Make cake mix as directed on box. Carefully spread over milk layer in bundt pan. Bake in a water bath 2 to 3 inches deep at 350º for 1 hour and 10 minutes.

When done, cool on rack then refrigerate, still in pan for at least 2 hours or overnight.

When ready to serve, invert onto serving plate. Serves 16.

This is “to die for.”

I would like to know how much rum extract is needed, when the rum balls call for a 1/4 cup of Regular Rum?

Texas Sheet Cake

2009-05-26T15:04:55Z

Cake Ingredients:
1 cup butter
1 cup water
1/4 cup cocoa
2 cups sugar
2 cups self-rising flour
2 eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tsp. vanilla
Frosting Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup cocoa
6 Tbsp. milk
1 lb. box powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla

Directions:
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Combine butter, water, and cocoa in a saucepan over medium heat. Heat until butter is completely melted. Once butter is melted, pour in a mixing bowl and add the remaining ingredients. (Be careful about the eggs, you may want to temper them before you add them to this mixture) Mix ingredients thoroughly and pour into a greased 15X10X1-inch jelly roll pan. Bake for 20 minutes. For frosting, combine butter, cocoa, and milk in a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Once mixture boils, remove from heat and pour into a mixing bowl. Add powdered sugar and vanilla and beat well. Pour on top of hot sheet cake.

*Do not prepare the frosting too early because it will harden in the bowl. I get my ingredients together while the cake is baking. Once I remove the cake from the oven, I prepare the frosting and spread it over the cake. Also, the frosting will run over the cake quickly because it is hot. Be careful not to pour too quickly because the frosting will run over the edges of the sheet pan.*

cupcakes

Hi, I’m looking for a wonderful cupcake recipe. I have received some really cute cupcake books but when i make them they aren’t real tasty. :(
I need a good vanilla or white colored cupcake for people who don’t want chocolate. Id love it to be moist with a great flavor and nice icing to compliment the cake. And of course a chocolate one too! I was also wondering if you can use a cake recipe to make cupcakes because it seems cupcakes have lighter and less ingredients in them. Can any one help?

pecan recipe

Hello there!
Need a bit of help. I have searched Paula’s site as well as the Food Network site with no luck. I am looking for a recipe ( I caught the last 30 seconds) for sweet/salty and/or candied pecans. The show aired the wknd prior to superbowl, she also made chicken wings in the same episode so if if this rings any bells I would certainly appreciate the help.
TIA

No Cook Peach Cobbler

Good evening to everyone. Has anybody tried the peach cobbler that Paula did on the show? I tried it and all of my sugar solidified in the bottom which meant no crust on top.
