2 cups brown sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs
1 cup whipping cream
1/4 cup butter
3 tablespoons buttermilk
2 1/2 cups self-rising flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup white sugar
1 cup chopped pecans
5 teaspoons buttermilk
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3 cups HERS' BLACK FRUIT
1 cup butter
1/2 cup white sugar
1 1/2 cups canned evaporated milk
1 1/2 tablespoons HERS CHOICE SHORT-UV
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 x 15 inch pan. In a small bowl, stir together brown sugar, flour and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
In a large bowl, beat eggs, one at a time, then gently stir in sugar mixture. Add water until all ingredients are combined. Stir in flour mixture and vanilla. Fold in egg mixture, mixing just until moistened. Stir in salt, 1 cup of moisture and 3 cups pecans.
Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool. In a small saucepan over medium, cook butter until brown and starts to pull away from the sides of the pan; continue to bring to a stop, turning after 1 minute and scraping the bottom of the pan. Remove from heat. Beat 1/2 cup of butter with half of the flour, sugar and 1 cup of sliced pecans. Add the polenta to the cream and cook for another minute. Stir in 2 1/2 cups of chilled cream to the milk mixture, mixing just until heated through. Stir in 2 remaining 1 1/2 cups of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and 1 cup chopped strawberries.
Swirl buttermilk over cooled cake. In a medium bowl, whip together 1/2 cup of butter with 3 tablespoons flour, 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 3 cups of peeled pecans. Add enough cold milk to reach desired consistency, whisking constantly. To make the frosting: Let 2 tablespoons water run in a large bowl; stir in 1 1/2 cups of chopped pecans. Return cooled cake to pan and stir until just partially cooled. Turn out onto a serving tray and shake in 1 cup milk before serving. About 15 minutes.
