What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

I've always wanted to try Hangtown Fry. Made this according to recipe except I cooked oysters like I would fry - let sit in oil until brown on one side then turn and brown other side. Next time I will use one more oyster so bacon is completely covered. This is excellent dish.
