I love Devil's Food cake. My mom makes the icing on the stove. It is so good, but you can only make it during certain weather. She always makes me one for my birthday!!!
I also love Mississippi mud. It is so sweet my teeth hurt thinking about it.

Any kind of fruit cobbler and there's always pecan pie. Too many to mention!

They all sound good. Do either of you have recipes to share for those? mmmmm.....

Look, Y'all - if you're from The South and don't mention Banana Pudding, there's something seriously WRONG!

My mom used to make a chocolate meringue pie that I've never been able to reproduce. The chocolate filling was really DARK chocolate and it was GREAT.

I have the recipe, but as I said I've not ever been able to make mine turn out as good as hers.
