Cinnamon Yum Yums Recipes

CINNAMON YUM CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or dish and line bottom with parchment paper. Grease parchment or spray with cooking spray.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cardamom, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Beat together butter and sugar with an electric mixer at medium speed in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in syrup, then add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in wine and half of flour mixture, then beat in remaining flour mixture. Add nuts and raisins, beating just until combined. Pour batter into prepared pan.
• Bake until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Cool cake completely in pan on a wire rack, about 1 hour.
• Sprinkle with some turbinado sugar and nuts for garnish.

GRANNY'S LEMON YUM YUM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Combine the flour and pecans in a mixing bowl. Mix in the softened butter until the mixture is evenly moistened and no clumps of butter remain. Press the crust evenly over the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
• Beat the cream cheese and confectioners' sugar in a bowl until light and fluffy. Fold in 1 1/2 cups of the whipped topping, then spread the mixture over the cooled crust. Chill in the refrigerator.
• Stir the sugar, cornstarch, and salt together in a saucepan along with enough water to make a paste. Stir in the eggs until smooth, then add the remaining water, vinegar, and lemon juice. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until thick and smooth, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of butter and the lemon extract. Chill the mixture until cold.
• Spread the cold lemon mixture evenly over the cream cheese layer. Top with the remaining whipped topping.
