"I can't remember where I found this recipe, but I can remember how fantastic (and tasty!) it was. I used recipe #95365 for the powdered sugar glaze. Everyone went back for seconds!"

This cake is to die for!!!!! It came out moist and delicious. Everyone loved the English Toffee Bits on the top....it is a great compliment to the pumpkin. Can't wait to make it again. Thanks for sharing, ceruleanseven!!!!

Very good!!! I substituted unsweetened applesauce for the oil and egg whites for the eggs. I also omitted the pecans, don't like nuts. But it turned out great & smelled great.

I live in a small University town with my husband, our giant cat Minion, and our Aussie puppy Roux. I love trying new things, and going new places. I'll try anything twice. Consequently, this has broadened my view of cooking. If I'm bored, Recipezaar is the first place I go. I like finding new recipes by browsing the "Photos" page. <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg"> My longterm cooking goals include: 1) learning to make rice like they do in a Chinese restaurant (I don't like rice myself, but my husband adores it) 2) overcoming my aversion to making homemade bread (seems to me there are too many factors in bread-making that could go terribly awry) 3) relaxing about it; shouldn't cooking be fun? 4) try new stuff!
