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!

They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.














reviews & comments
I am a little confused with the brine ingredients. It mentions the 1/2 pint water STRAINED FROM 1/2 box cooked pickling spices. Can clearer directions be provided for making the brine?
