Sometimes I just want comfort food- the memories that a familiar recipe bring up when cakes are made for traditional occasions. My dear freind Bob hates to have anyone fuss over him- he won't allow birthday parties. So we have an Unbirthday Dinner once a year to say thank you for all he does for us! The almost part to this recipe is that it uses Walnuts instead of pecans- from our trees of course! Ingredients:
4 egg yolks |
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk |
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
3/4 cup butter (1-1/2 sticks) |
1 (7 ounce) package coconut (about 2-2/3 cups) |
1 1/2 cups walnuts, finely chopped |
Directions:
1. Beat the egg yolks, milk and vanilla in large saucepan with wire whisk until well blended. 2. Add sugar and butter; cook on medium heat 12 minute or until thickened and golden brown, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. 3. ADD coconut and walnuts; mix well. 4. Cool to room temperature and of desired spreading consistency. 5. USE to frost your favorite cake or cupcake recipe. |
