Chickies, I made this last week, and I was awfully disappointed.
Oh well...
Some things I learned--you should add the cornstarch (or arrowroot) to a small amount of liquid and stir with a fork until totally combined before adding to the glaze. If you do it the way the recipe says, you end up with lumps.
Unfortunately, I put this in the oven without enough time to let it bake fully. After 50 mins I had to leave for an appt, so I just turned the oven off and left the light on with the cake inside until I got home. I'm not sure how much this affected it. It was definitely done when I got home, but maybe it made it too dry or too dense?
Need to plan my time better next time! The cake had a great flavor of pumpkin pie, but the consistency was off. Maybe I need to add some more buttermilk to offset the WW flour?
This really was good, just not as fantastic as it was in my mind. You know? But it was definitely worth trying again. I'll let you know when I do.
Zeff, I'm still giggling about the thought of us walking around with pound cakes stuck to our nether cheeks.
