I ground the nuts and my grandchildren, who won't touch nuts, ate most of the cake. Very moist and flavorful, and I did not use icing.

Cajun Chicken Pasta

Oh my goodness. Words cannot describe how good this recipe is. I absolutely loved it. I added a little more cajun seasoning than it said because I love spiciness and it was perfect. I will definitely make this a meal to share with everyone.
