I definitely could use more tasters!<br /><br />Marthaandme - Clark says this recipe isn't so toothachingly sweet because the recipe is yeast rather than crisco based. Perhaps Deen's recipe was like the latter?<br /><br />Ruth - I was surprised by your statement as I always thought of MIssouri as a Southern state, but then I went researching and found that Missouri is in a class by itself. Some say it's Southern while others say Midwestern and still others even say Northern. Missouri did have a star in the Confederate flag and according to Wiki, also had a star on the Union flag and two separate governments representing North and South. <br /><br />So it seems that my assumptions are perhaps purely based on being Virginian at heart. While those who are Midwestern and/or Northern may feel very differently.
