hello- Ok so my hubby LOVES pecans - and wants to make some sort of a dessert with Pecans in it for Thanksgiving (nothing like waiting until the last minute)anyways - if any of you have any good recipes for desserts with pecans in it - besides the traditional pecan pie. I appreciate ANYTHING you can give me!!!
Thanks! and Have a happy Thanksgiving!
Paula Deen has a great pecan cake w/caramel icing but beware--it has like 2 million eggs in it. Now, if you're looking to clog the arteries of your entire family with O. dessert....LOL :-)
You can probably find it online. It's a layer cake.....sooooooo yummy!
If this link does not work, search "Derby Pie." If what you find calls for walnuts, just sub the pecans!
Think pecan pie with choclate chips - mmmmmm! :-)
I just made this - everyone loved it! You can find it in most magazine now.
