How I treasure these videos of Phyllis teaching and sharing tasty recipes we can make for our families! Thank you again Steven for keeping her channel "alive"! Be safe young many!
My husband LOVES her food as well as myself. He comes home and ask me what's Miss Phyllis cooking for supper? I love the way she teaches and her stories. Thank you for keeping her videos up. Such a wonderful lady and wonderful gentleman are in God's house now. 😇😇
Made as directed and a HUGE HIT! This is a keeper! Mississippi Mud Pie and Ugly Duckling Cake are two of my forever recipes now! Thank you, Phyllis, I adore you and your recipes!!
I've noticed and so appreciate, your frugal habbits. So many, so called experts, on the Food Network channels, waste so much food, it's ridiculous. Makes one wonder, since they are "teaching the masses," are the food manufacturers paying them, to purposely teach us to be wasteful, so they can sell more food. It's a pet peeve of mine.
You maybe at your eternal rest but lord knows you have some of the greatest recipes on RUclips's youmust have been a real sweet heart'Steve I know you loved her she was easy to love'holding onto as many of recipes as I can'🙏👏
This cake brings back memories of my childhood. I remember my mother putting fruit cocktail in her cake. I will be making this one for my father. He loves anything with coconut flakes. Thanks for sharing !
I used vanilla cake mix and banana pudding...this cake is super delicious and moist. I took it to a Christmas function...not one crumb was left. Thanks again Phyllis for another winner!
LOL... I was eyeing the banana pudding this weekend when I was buying my cake ingredients for this weekend. Glad to see your post... I might try your version too - another time!
Phyllis, watching your videos takes me back to all those ice cream socials, community suppers, and the families gathering in our church hall. I miss those days! Thank you for bringing back the memories for me! Bless you!
I love this CAKE!!!! I make it for Thanksgiving and I'm doing it for Christmas. So far this is the BEST CAKE and the family love it!!!! Thank you for sharing this recipe.
Made this cake.Phillis was so right.It was Delicious.Miss her so much.Glad we have her videos to watch.Its like she is still here with us.Her and Bucky.
I MADE THIS CAKE FOR THANKSGIVING THIS YEAR 2017 & I MADE IT AGAIN LAST WEEK FOR OUR LADY'S CHRISTMAS LUNCHEON. I HAVE GOTTEN RAVES & REQUESTS FOR THIS DESSERT, I'M GOING TO MAKE IT AGAIN USING MINI BUNDT PANS & PUT THE SAUCE IN THE CENTER WITH A CHERRY ON TOP. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. IT IS A HIT!! :)
It doesn't look ugly to me. It looks dang good. I may have to make this one. Thanks for the recipe. I've watched you for a good little while now and just subscribed a few days ago. The first video I ever saw of you was the one with your lambs wool duster. Kind of been a watcher ever since. Love your interactions with Mr Bucky as well. Y'all are a hoot and just too cute! Love from Georgia! 💜💛💚💙
Yum, Yum. My type of cake, this is almost like a cake called fruit pudding cake. It's a recipe from the 1950's. The topping is the same, except I use walnuts instead of pecans. This cake is dynomite!
I’ve got to tell you, this is almost exactly like a cake that I learned to make from my grandmother back in the 1960s. But they didn’t call it ugly duck cake, they called it hummingbird cake. And it was her favorite. It tastes Wonderful yummy delicious! We used to make this purely from scratch, making it from I cake mix bake is going to make it a lot simpler to make. Thank you so much for sharing this delicious recipe!
Hi Phyllis 🙋🏽♀️ I'm new and I love watching you make cakes and what not. I love you voice reminds me of back home in Lawrenceville Illinois. Thanks 👍🏾
Oh Phyllis, this looks absolutely delicious. I'm going to get the ingredients to make for tomorrow..absolutely decadent..thank you Merry Christmas to you and family..love you. Gooder than good!!
Hi Phyllis I'm fairly new to your videos but I had to tell you that your ugly duckling cake (my mom always called it a dump cake) was so delicious. My husband and son loved it! Gone in 1 day and looking for another cake. Please keep doing the videos. Takes me back to my childhood with fond memories of my own mom in the kitchen.
Missing your lovely self but your son is doing a wonderful job continuing this channel ,my hubby fav cake I use a heaped table soon of custard powder instead of pudding powder
Phyllis - the Lemon version was GREAT! I did not add any to the sauce - thought it would be a little much. My Bible classmates loved it! You are a jewel, and as always - love, love, your videos and you!
Phyllis : I am so happy you're making the Ugly Duckling Cake... I first found it on a cake mix when our son was 2.. that was 39 years ago... I made it for Easter for so many years...the recipe was on a box of yellow cake mix... Over the years, I lost the composition book it was in....Maybe I'll make one for Christ birthday... Thank you woohoo very much for publishing this yummy treasure...
I use to make a similar cake from scratch but it looked dark like the Texas Tornado cake with German Chocolate icing. It won First Prize and beat out a Lady Baltimore cake baked by a competitor who thought it would be sure to win. It was called a Fruit Cocktail cake and I used a mixer to cut up the fruit cocktail that may have made the cake darker.
Mmm looks delicious. You can never go wrong with pecans, coconuts, and sugar!! I'm diffinetly gonna give this one a try. It would be a great cake to take to a church potluck
Hi Phyllis, I was curious as do you have a facebook page so as I may get more of your recipes . For This cake may be called the Ugly Duckling but when baked it is the Swan . Thank you kindly for sharing.
This recipe is so good; my grandmother used to make this cake during Christmas but in her church recipe book it was called simply, "Fruit Cocktail Cake." It's the same recipe, only this one, in my opinion, is better because you can use a box cake mix and no one would be the wiser! Thanks for sharing, Phyllis!
That's what my mother called it. 1.Fruit Cocktail Cake 2. Dump. Cake made with cherries, crushed pineapple and dry cake mix and pats of margarine baked on top. 3. Funny Cake made with 3 holes (wells) eggs and vinegar. 4. Dunkin Hinds Lemon cake, Box of lemon jello, bake, put holes in warm cake . Mix some fresh lemon and powdered Sugar together with couple Tablespoons milk and pour over the holes. It's tart and so good. Now they make it with orange too. 5. They just called this barf. Strawberry Jello, crushed pinespple, small curd cottage cheese. Mix together and it comes out bright pink. It's so good too.
Well, now, I think it is beautiful! And I have a family gathering coming up, so this is what I will make. I am slobbering already! I just love all those ingredients, so I know it is delicious.
Ms.Phyllis i would like to thank you for sharing this recipe i made this cake n i must say that it was Molicious because once you taste it u want more n more it was soooo buttery and tasty i topped mine with chocolate icing greeting from down here in Tennessee
I can hear my grandma from beyond the grave "Don't you dare use a metal utensil in a metal pan! That's how you ruin them and drive my nerves to hell and back with all that scratching noise!"....Cake's good btw. lol
I don't know about ugly duckling cake cause it sure does look like a delicious cake in my opinion n I like to know if I could use vanilla instead of orange flavor for the cake. Thanks in advance greetings from down here in Tennessee keeping u in prayer 🙏
I made it with crushed pineapple and its delish.i substituted walnuts instead of pecans since i didn't have any on hand. Thanks Ms. Phyllis. You're awesome
I love watching you fixing receipts and listening to your story’s but I haven’t heard from you in a long time. Please answer and up date us about what’s going on in your life.

Never heard of this cake but seems very similar to a Fruit Cocktail cake. Probably much fluffier and moist with the instant pudding.

Well, now, I think it is beautiful! And I have a family gathering coming up, so this is what I will make. I am slobbering already! I just love all those ingredients, so I know it is delicious.
I love cherries too Miss Phyllis! I think I'ma make it with a jar of maraschino cherries instead of the fruit cocktail!
Would be delicious with the maraschino cherries.
A little like the classic Fruit Cocktail cake!
I am going to try this I like the box cake mixes I always doctor them up.
Wish I would have seen this a few weeks ago, .. Our local school just presented the play, "Honk", a modern version of, "The Ugly Duckling"!!!

RIP Ms. Phyllis
Oh My I have to make this. Thanks for sharing.
If you toasted the coconut before topping the cake in the end that would be really tasty.
I will, of course, make this with the fruit cocktail but I was wondering if this would work with crushed pineapple too? ;-)
I'm pretty sure crushed pineapple would be delicious.
I made it with crushed pineapple and its delish.i substituted walnuts instead of pecans since i didn't have any on hand. Thanks Ms. Phyllis. You're awesome
...or mandarin oranges.
That looks so yummy! I'm going to have to make one!
