Miss Monica... - Cake recipie

PrairieMom wrote: Alright, I have found a few little flaws with your recipe. How big of a can of pumpkin pie filling do I use? the big one or the little one? I sued the big one, I hope I didn't screw things up. I also had no idea I was making a bunt cake. I don't have a bunt pan. I hope it works okay in my angel food cake pan. Its baking right now. The batter smelled DIVINE!!!
How much glaze does that recipe make? I love frosting, so should I double the glaze recipe for more or would it be to much glaze?

PrairieMom replied: Also wondering if I should glaze tonight, or wait till tomorrow before the dinner.

luvmykids replied: Yes, it is the big can...it makes it thick and really moist. I've never tried it in an angel food pan, I'm sorry, I should have clarified that but I think it will be ok.

The glaze is REALLY sweet, so even a frosting fiend might have enough with just the one recipe but that might just be my taste. I personally like the glaze to have hardened some on the outside but still be sort of moist inside, so I usually glaze it a few hours before serving it.

MoonMama replied: Oops I just posted asking the same thing about the size of the can of pumpkin.

And its all your fault Monica that I own a bunt pan now. The first time I made it I didn't use a bunt pan Tara and it worked out perfectly fine.

PrairieMom replied:
YOu were totally clear that it was to be baked in a bunt pan, I just didn't read that far into the recipe until the oven was already pre-heating. It smells soooo good tho. I think I will wait and make the glaze tomorrow and put it on before dinner.

PrairieMom replied:
what kind of a pan did you use?

luvmykids replied: You didn't lick the beaters or the bowl? It is soooo yummy before it's even baked

You guys are making me want to bake one. I'm just too lazy to go to the store for the spice cake mix

MoonMama replied:
Just a square pan.

PrairieMom replied: Aw man.... I forgot to add the cinnamon. I swear I really can bake, but when you are trying to keep your kid's fingers out of the bowl things get missed. Can I add it to the glaze and still be okay?

luvmykids replied: I bet that would taste great!

Calimama replied: You guys are making me hungry.

PrairieMom replied:
yeah... you should smell my house right now.
