I have been a penny pincher..can’t bring myself to buying a big Calvados..always ask if they have little trial size bottles..LOL..no one ever does..
Missouri:) Made me smile..Some people say Cincinnata instead of Cincinnati..I find it charming..and knew what they meant but I have always said Missouri..Cincinnati:)
Thank you for this new recipe to me.
Just use vanilla. It was just a coincidence that I had brandy. I think it was a Christmas gift or something like that. This is not the prettiest recipe, but I would encourage you to make it. It is addictive. Thanks for stopping by. I love your comments.
LOL!! Love that story about how to pronounce Missouri! My son – born and raised in So Cal went to Florida for spring break a couple of years ago. After he got back he called me and said he was teased about his “accent” – uh… what accent?? I had no idea we had one!!! Speaking of having no idea – I had no idea this dessert existed and I am intrigued as well – definitely going to have to try this one!!
SoCal – what accent would that be? That is so funny.
Nancy, I feel like I need to apologize for this ugly duckling, but it has been on the Whitehouse’s menu since about the 40s. I would love to see their presentation, but it is apples and pecan and how bad could that be? If you make it I would love to know your thoughts or if you have any tips on presentation.
Haha, we had the same type of situations when we moved to the South from the Midwest. Couldn’t even understand the folks at first. Now I talk like them, not because I’ve take on a southern accent but only so I don’t have to repeat myself! Love your dessert, no matter what you call it, it sounds scrumptious. Such a pretty plate too!
Thanks Chris.
This sounds delicious…I love a dessert where presentation doesn’t have to be perfect. Let the dish’s deliciousness speak for itself 😉 Thanks for sharing at ATTBH.
Blessings,
Nici
When you were describing it all of the words are the things I love. Gooey, caramely, and nutty. YUM! Have never had this but it sure sounds delicious! Thanks for sharing the recipe with SYC.
hugs,
Jann
All that and easy too. I hope you will try it.
Perfect combo and looks so good!
Thank you for visiting. I hope you will give it a try.
I’ve never heard of this dessert, either version, but it sounds wonderful! I think Huguenot Torte sounds much more interesting than Ozark Pudding!
I agree about the name. It is pretty tasty, I hope you will try it. Thanks for visiting Jenna.
This sounds so good, no matter which name it goes by. :))
I am always surprised when I choose something that is not glamourous, but this is addictive. It is so easy I hope you will give it a try.
Love the simplicity of this dessert and your presentation looks very elegant. I think I would definitely want to call it Hugenot Torte (sounds much more sophisticated).
I totally agree with Huguenot – it does sound more appealing. Somewhere in my research it mentioned that Harry Truman’s wife Bess Truman was not one to “put on airs”. I think she may have named it Ozark Pudding, but I am not sure. She had a real disdain for Washington politics and their “high brow” ways. I can see her calling it a pudding just because torte probably sounded fancy to her.
So true about don’t get caught up in a name. Sometimes what goes around comes around with regard to that attorney 🙂
Love your torte and Calvados makes everything taste divine. Have a nice weekend.
Sam
So true Sam.
I forgot to add that I will be following you on Feedly.
Have a great weekend.
Sam
Thank you. You are such a good cook I feel honored.
What ever anyone wishes to call this dessert, I know they will be calling it delicious. 🙂
Thanks Karen. I think you will like it and with your own homegrown apples it would be difficult to go wrong. I was surprised such humble and few ingredients could make something so yummy.
This is a fabulous dessert, whatever folks want to call it! Thanks so much for sharing your great recipe with Full Plate Thursday and enjoy your Thanksgiving week!
Come Back Soon

I’ve never heard of this dessert before. Now I need to try it.
Thanks for visiting Barbara, I hope you will give it a try.
I want to give this a try for dessert sometime this week, sounds like a perfect treat.
I hope you like it. It is not the prettiest, but it is delicious. At least that was my thoughts.
Don’t think I’ve ever try this dessert before. But looks incredibly delicious. 🙂 thanks for sharing.
Thanks for visiting Amy. I discovered this recipe several years ago, but just got around to making it. If you like apples, pecans and caramel-like pavlova your should like this. If you make it let me know your thoughts.
This sounds delicious! I had to chuckle about the pronunciations of words…I always get flak for the way I pronounce English places. But…I’m Scottish. It’s just what you’re used to, I guess 🙂
Thanks for stopping by Angela. Actually I was sure, but I had to look it up in the dictionary to be positive, but he was just being mean to me because he could. He could have use Charm School 101. 🙂
I love your commentary! This dessert just sounds yummy no matter what you call it! Hugs…Debbie
Thanks Debbie. I was pleasantly surprised at how good it is, but then again it’s apple and pecans with a meringue-like top. I can see how it has stayed on the White House menu. I am sure they had a prettier presentation.
Yum, I know I would love this recipe and, since I live in the heart of hazelnut country, that’s what I will use. We get all kinds of weird pronunciations of places here in the Pacific NW. Every time I heard somebody say “Or-e-gone” I just cringe.
Or-e-gone sounds painful.:) Hazelnuts sounds delish. I did not know the NW was/is hazelnut country. I will have to check that out. I want to try some homemade nutella. Thanks for stopping by.
