Pumpkin Pound Cake with Buttermilk Glaze
The photo for this cake is literally making me drool...and I think it might be a great recipe to use for SF glazes! I haven't made this yet, but plan to make it this weekend; I'll post how it turns out.

I don't care if this is from Cooking Light...it's going to make my butt fat. :)
It looks awesome, Laurie. I have so many things I want to bake this fall! |
If I change the pumpkin out for sweet potatoe do you think this will taste good or the same? I have to find out the calories on this one. This looks good.

:lol: Zeff, I doubt it will head directly for your butt. ;) It looks good enough to do that, though, doesn't it? Have you ever seen that add with the girl with two cinnamon rolls stuck to her butt? I can so relate to that. :rolleyes:
Calories are listed, SBD Sass--273 per serving if you make it the way they did. I think our way might be less because the sugar adds calories. :shrug: You could run it through fitday if you want. I think using sweet potatoes would be good too, though it might change the consistency as I think they are a little drier. :chin: |
Laurie - I might as well have two pound cakes taped to my butt.
The calorie counts would be much lower in the SBD way of making it. There are approx. 770 calories in a cup of sugar and using a alternative butter would bring it down even further. |
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. :p 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. :lol3: |
