Texas Tornado Cake - Good Recipe For Those Who Work
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ต.ค. 2024
- This is a rich and very moist cake and can be made in one bowl without even using a mixer.
I used a can of Fruit Cocktail in heavy syrup, I would suggest using the Fruit cocktail packed in fruit juice instead.
Here's the recipe from Alice:
May 15 (1 day ago)
to me
The link below has the pictures of it and shows a recipe that is just like mine except for the Icing they use brown sugar where mine uses white sugar.
This is mine from the Southern Living Cook Book.
Texas Tornado Cake
1 1/2 cups Sugar
2 Eggs
2 cups Fruit Cocktail, including liquid
2 teaspoons Baking Soda
2 cups All Purpose Flour
1/4 cup Brown Sugar
1 cup Chopped Nuts
Mix and cream together the first 5 ingredients.
Pour batter into a lightly greased and floured 13X9
Cake pan. Then mix the brown sugar and nuts together and sprinkle onto the top of the batter.
Bake in preheated 325 degree oven
approximately 40 minutes.
Spread Icing on cake while it’s hot.
Icing
1 stick Butter
3/4 cup Sugar
1/2 cup Evaporated Milk
1 cup Angle Flake Coconut
Boil the butter, sugar, and milk for two minutes ( it will raise up in the pan) add the Coconut.
Spoon over the cake as soon as it comes out of the oven.
Cool before serving.
Freezes well.

I could have sat and listened to these stories for days...and eat cake and drink coffee
Rest Easy
She is like the Bob Ross of baking. So relaxing. 😊
What a dear soul Philis was/is if course her soul lives on with the Lord.
I agree I miss her too.
Your sweet face holding up that delicious cake was on my home screen on youtube for days i would go to click it then draw my hand back because the heartache would start and i could not bear it...now hearing your sweet voice im in tears..dear friend you have no idea how or why people enter your life the crazy way you even came to know them and the many conversations and funny things that you shared with one another or in a thread...like having a hen party miles apart from one another but feeling like next door neighbors and just as protective of one another. I was so blessed to know you and you will always stay right here in my heart you are the southern charming most lovely and God fearing Christian lady ever...and your sweet thoughtful tutorials as well as the conversations and our friendship will be treasured. Your recipes are still our favorites here and I miss you. Tears falling on my tablet You would be proud of your son, he has done so much for us grieving while he himself walked through memories of you and Mr. Bucky and all the while still working and traveling. Such an amazing gentleman with the same pure of heart sweet spirited soul as his mom and mr bucky. I send you love and ill see you on that day i am called home, please save a place at the table for me with a big slice of your tornado cake and a cup of joe. I will bring my happy heart and a warm sisterly embrace and my gratitude for bringing comfort into my life when i needed it most while i too was grieving. Love to you Mrs Phillis Stokes.bye for now....
I just discovered Phyllis on TH-cam. Her recipes look so delicious. I was sad to hear of her passing..... she sounds like a sweet soul.
It's SO nice to" see and hear" Ms. Phyllis again. Loved her and Mr. Bucky! May they both R. I. P.
I want to do a cake for Thanksgiving; so, I am re-watching some of Miss Phyllis' videos. Gosh, I miss her. What a sweet soul; her videos were soothing and relaxing to watch. Rest in Peace Phyllis and Mr. Bucky.
What a sweet lady!! I regret not commenting to her and letting her know that I love her soothing and calming voice; Thank you very much Miss Phyllis, for your wonderful recipes and your lovely videos. May you be baking delicious cakes like this one in heaven; now that you are an angel ♥
I’ve waited before too and not responded to some I wish I had. So from now on, let’s not wait and then have regrets. Speak up while we can.

Boy I miss Miss Phyllis and Mr. Bucky. They would have been great to watch during these trying times and given us delicious recipes to boot. Glad this came up in my feed today to remind me.
I’m so happy Ms. Phyllis made all these videos with ALL these AMAZING recipes!❤ Miss her a lot, but I can watch her on here anytime.🥰🙏🏼🕊️
So happy your videos are still available to watch. I know your with Jesus and pain free, but those down here miss your beautiful smile n southern witticisms. Thank you to the family for sharing her memories with us
Miss Phyllis reminds me of the southern women I grew up around. Very calming to watch and great recipes that I ate growing up and didn't realize I missed 'till now. Thanks.
I hope your son will make a cookbook of all of your recipes along with photos. You are missed terribly but we know you are in heaven enjoying your time with Mr.Bucky.
So love that Phyllis lives on in her videos
She was such a good teacher...I miss her.
I live in South Africa and when we make this cake which we call... fruit cocktail cake... We use the juice from the cocktail and use it to make the sauce with the coconut and we do not add the pecan nuts at all. It is a awesome cake and so moist. 💚👍
Mr. Bucky, a man of few words, but you can see he really liked the cake, yall are such a sweet couple.
So sweet, gentle, and kind. You are missed, and thank you for your recipes 😇💚🙋🏽♀️
How could anyone ever give Miss Phyllis video a thumbs down. 😌. Cake looks great ❤🙋
I don't know how anyone can give a thumbs down to any video. If someone doesn't like a video, then they should just go to a different channel and watch something else. I love "visiting" Miss Phyllis' kitchen.
Share Bear I agree
Thumbs up from me for sure
Sharon B. I agree! She is such a gracious lady and her recipes just look wonderful. People are just plain mean. They don’t know how to appreciate a great southern lady like Miss Phyllis
They are just mean spirited people..that's just it. Just mean..spirited..and miserable people..
Sharon B. shame on thumbs down. they don't know what a loving lady looks like. she's beautiful inside n out. Brownsville texas
I hope they leave her videos up forever I just love watching her cook in the kitchen and the recipes are really user-friendly so I'm sure it helps a lot of young women that are starting out with families that need to learn how to cook, wonderful wonderful woman her mannerisms and Her speech and the way she talks is so comforting and mild and relaxing just listening to her talk is very soothing, I'm so happy these videos are still here and I hope they continue for many years to come
Miss Phyllis I adore your channel. Not only do I love your voice but your way of life brings me a sort of comfort and peace in this crazy hectic world. Your recipes remind me of when life was so much simpler and more family oriented. Thank you for all the effort that you put into making these videos for us. I'm glad to see Mr. Bucky is doing well.
Donna G OMG same!
Thank you for being you. I work 3rd shift and can't wait to get home to watch the newest video or go digging for oldies but goodies that I haven't watched yet. Thank you for all you do!
Donna G yes
Voice sounds like a muffled man with strep throat
@@mjeffries4749 Kindly keep your rude comments to yourself. Especially, considering the fact she just recently passed away.
Bittersweet to hear her gentle voice again. I got a lot of good cooking tips from Ms. Phyllis over the years.
You are the definition of southern hospitality. I thoroughly enjoy watching you, I have learned a lot from your videos.❤️
I agree 100% with the previous comment. All of her videos are a pleasure to watch. She and Mr. Bucky were quite a pair. It's comforting to think of her enjoying a good country kitchen in heaven. Thanks to her son for keeping the videos coming - a nice surprise when they pop up on TH-cam.
I just love watching her channel, thank you for keeping it still open!
I just made this cake and wow is it good and easy to make! RIP Southern belle, you are missed.
Dear Phyllis, This cake looks like a Sunday dessert cake. Only watching one of your recipes vlogs tonight, took meds time for bed, Have a great night, will watch more tomorrow. You know Dear Phyliss you would have made one helluva homemaking teachers. You would have made the best..Some one all he girls could look up too. But am happy you are our teacher on youtube,
I enjoy all her recipes and story's
She was and still in our hearts.!!!!😘
I really missed her, I love the recipe of pineapple sheet cake, was my favorite, bless her heart and god is taking care of her.!!!!!
Just wanted to tell you that I really appreciate the extra time that you take to cut, plate, taste test, and summarize every recipe that you make. :) It really is so helpful to see inside, and to hear your thoughts. We’ll always know what it, “should,” look like, and what to expect, on all of the recipes when we try them ourselves. I’m always learning from you, new tips and tricks! And I love hearing the different stories and memories that you sometimes share. Of course, talks with Steely, about Sonny, and on occasion seeing Mr Bucky too! I pray that you will always absolutely enjoy posting your videos, Miss Phyllis. Because you’re a ray of sunshine 🌞 that I look forward to every day! Thank you!! 🌷🤗🦋
The sweetest comment - thank you.
@@PhyllisStokes ❤️❤️🙏❤️❤️
I have been watching your videos and reading the comments and I just wanted to say that I love being in your kitchen I feel like I'm spending time with an old friend
Miss Phyllis I just want to say thank you for your videos. My mother passed away 19 years ago at the age of 51. She cooked just like you and baked just like you. I never took the time when I was young and she was alive to learn to cook from her and I always regretted it. I was always too busy with my career. In the past year I have had to move back home to take care of my father and his second wife, because of their declining health. I found your you tube channel and by learning from you my father is in heaven eating like he used to when my mom was alive. His wife is enjoying it also. Thank you so much. You and Mr. Bucky have brought some comfort into our lives. Please keep up with the videos. I have also started them on the smoothies and it has helped alot.
You are the Wife every Man needs!! Thanks for being the people America used to have!!
My Grandmother used to make almost identical cake except she used brown sugar and butter in the batter and chocolate chips & chopped walnuts for the topping!! She called it a lunchbox cake :)
I've had that....it's delicious
I'd love the lunch box cake recipe.
Maybe I can find it online somewhere?
Thank you. I love your relaxing voice. Bless you
I just found your channel and love it! I'm a southerner so hope to try some of your recipes. It's good to see a Christian couple sharing on youtube. Thanks!
You Miss Phillis are missed so much but your wonderful son kept your videos on .....Thank You....
My mother made this. Your video made me tear up. Thank you for sharing.
I sure miss those two beautiful souls.
Two Baby-Boomer lovebirds enjoying their blessings of the fruit they sewed together throughout their lives and into their comfortable retirement... before each of them passed away. I miss them so much. They are so inspiring. “... well done, thou good and faithful servant... enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.” Matthew 25:21 KJV
my mama was from Texas & she use to make this one. Thanks a lot for the reciept I have so many to go through to find it, this is much easier.
I have been making this cake for over 30 years. It's always been called a "Fruit Cocktail Cake" in my family. It is my job to make it every Christmas when our family gets together & sometimes on a special occasion. It is so good. I always add a few pecan halves across the topping. I have used a hand mixer also. It doesn't tear the fruit up too bad. It's a hit in my family. Love all your videos!
I prepare it often too, Linda! It is so quick and handy for church dinners. Add whipped cream or ice cream when hot - YUMMY for the tummy!
Yup, fruit cocktail cake...i've been making this since the early 80's when a lady at church brought it for pot-luck. I use no topping though, just whipped cream. it sure is simple AND good!
My mom used to make Fruit Cocktail cake, too, when we had company. I always wished I had her recipe. Now I do, except I think Mom made some kind of thick syrup that you poured over each separate piece. Yummy!
@@bobbalooie69 m
Yep, Fruit cocktail cake.
I really do miss this woman. I hope she knew how many people she touched by her videos weather they are recipes or just stories. RIP.
Hello Angela
I just love watching Mr Bucky taste testing desserts it tickles my heart to see him deeply enjoying every bite : )
I know, right? Mr Bucky is awesome!
I miss you both but I’m happy that you both are together in Heaven.
Sweet Phyllis, watching this video is bittersweet, bc we no longer have her with us, but it feels so good to be able to relive the memories of Ms. Phyllis teaching us how to cook like grandma use to make. We will miss you, Ms. Phyllis. Thank you so much for sharing your love of cooking, and talking with us. Hug and 💕
Mr Bucky is so darn cute!!! I just love watching the two of you!
Hello Missy
She makes Cooking to be something so graceful and so lovely and relatively easy something Festive to make for Sunday
Hi Ms Phyllis, my first time watching and this cake looks so delicious. I'm amazed that it turned out dark because it was yellow when it went into the oven 🤔
nevertheless I'm surely going to bake one.
BLESSINGS 🙏🏾
After my awful day .. I stumbled on this video I have watched several in the past .. I won't make the cake .. I just enjoy watching it and listening .. like all the other comments ... her voice is so soothing I was so hyped up after a long day and I have 3 14 month old puppies yes let's call them the 3 stooges!!! Your voice is literally like going for a massage so calming and soothing not at all like my personality 😂!!! I'm now ready to sleep no cake needed I feel like I've already had it!!! Thanks Phyllis I will see you in heaven someday ❤
Wow does that look so good! Yes I want to make this right away. I'll be going to Wal-Mart in a few days. So I will get everything I need then. I'm excited to make this cake!!
Thank you Phyllis for another great recipe!! 💗💗💗💗
My Mom once made a fruit cobbler using canned mixed fruit! It was good too!!!! I don't think I ever would have thought to use mixed fruit for a cobbler, learn something new every day!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!!
I'm so glad that u post these easy meals and deserts for working family's, you are such a blessing to me and my family, thank u so much😁
Looking for a cake recipe and sweet Phyllis’ video popped up. Such a delight to watch her videos. She sure is missed.
Will be making this cake right away!!! Steely proved he had "nerves of steel" for sure but glad to hear he has Sunny "under control"....lol!
I just loved this sweet lady. I miss her. But can always come back for a dose of her gentle kindness. And a great recipe to try! ❤️
RIP sweet angels. ✝️ yall well be missed ❤😢💐
Love you, sweet Phyllis. I'm so grateful I can still find some amazing recipes from you.
Miss you Miss Phyllis. I found you one night when I had trouble sleeping. I stayed up to watch you prepare one of your recipes and it gave me a good night's rest and for that alone I'm grateful. But I come to watch your channel when I get frustrated or have a rough day to remind myself to embrace those things in life that bring you joy. Life is short and getting shorter.
God Bless.
Hi Phyllis
Thank you for bringing us these wonderful and easy recipes 😄💕💕
“I’m gonna have to make this, like right away” - Mrs Phyllis
Truer words have never been spoken 😊❤️❤
I’m so glad Phyllis Stokes is still on computer. Rip my friend.
So glad you posted this, I miss your mom and Mr. Buckey. Her spirit lives on through these vlogs. Thanks so very much!
My friends mom made this in the 60s when I was growing up but she called it a Fruit Cocktail Cake. I remember it being delicious.I love that icing. We always use it on top of an oatmeal cake too.
Just started to follow your channels then I found that you have gone a while back and I wish I came across your channel earlier. You may passed but I believe your videos helped many people incl me. Thank you so much and may you rest k God's peace❤
Tried the jello ,cream cheese canned pear recipe. It was excellent. Now I’ll try this. I’m all about quick and easy. Thank you so much for these.
Hello dear Phyllis!! I’m visiting you again. I’m going to make this cake this week. I’ve missed your calmness, your strong gentle quietness, your stories about Mr Steely and Mr Sunny and just absorbing the aura of your kitchen. You are a treasure ♥️ I’m so happy you are with Mr Bucky. I miss you…I feel like you are my mother.
I have made this cake for 45 years. We love it. We always called it fruit coctail cake
Can i use a regular yellow cake mix for it ?
We also have this recipe as fruit cocktail cake. Delish!
I've always enjoyed her videos from the first time I saw her, I miss her, but I can still visit her whenever I want, God Bless!!
I enjoy your videos so much
Very relaxing and teaches me new recipes.
Thank you Miss Phyllis 🌷🌷🌷
👍I’m gonna try to make a gluten free version.
I miss Ms. Phyllis & Mr. Bucky so much. RIP dear sweet people RIP. 🤗💝🤗
Love these quick and easy recipes, few ingredients, no fuss, perfect for working schedules ! Thanks so much dear Phyllis!

This looks so easy i think i could do it. I love coconut and this looks delicious! Thank you for new recipe!!!💜💜💜💜
I am going to make this cake in the next few days. It looks delicious. But mostly I just like spending time with Phyllis. Phyllis always made me smile ... and still does. Blessings to you, sweet Phyllis.
Since i am diabetic, I am not even going to mention that delicious looking cake. Steely obviously realized that Sunny is finally old enough to understand the hierarchy of the household. I bet they will now become good friends. They are both adorable.
God Bless Her and Mr Bucky...Her Sweet Soul and Recipes live on...
It looks delicious and goes well with coffee. Thanks for this recipe.
Miss you and your recipes
Oh my that cake looks mighty fine yum ! So glad those sweet pups are getting along better!
Hi, I'm James from columbia, SC. I just recently found Miss Phyliss on you tube. I'm 72 yrs old, and enjoy watching you tube vids. I watched several vids of Miss Phyliss cooking meals southern style and cooked some myself. I quickly fell in love with Miss Phyliss and M r Bucky. So I subscribed, and then I was heart broken to learn that both Mr Buclky and Miss Phyliss are gone, to be with our Lord. I am was shocked and very sad. I want to thank you, Colonel, for keeping the website going. Since learning of their passing, I've watched about 50 vids so far. I love your stories about life with your mom and Mr Bucky, and your sister who left us so soon. What a wonderful family you are part of. I plan to watch all eleven hundred videos Miss Phyliss has made. Watching them has given me peace in my heart, I can't express how much I love watching them. May our Lord bless you and all the members of your extended family, and give you all peace in your hearts. Thanks for your channel.
Thank you very much, James!
Reminds me of a Hummingbird cake, looks delicious and I'll have to try it. Steeley proved he was an alpha, good for him. Hopefully there will be peace now.
Thank you very much ,Ms Phyllis...I appreciate your sharing a slice of your life in each video..... and the beautiful comments from your viewers
. All the very best to you both!!
Hello Happy Wife
I just love her voice! Watching just to be calmed.
I am finally catching up on some of your recipes so I now have have fruit cocktail and pecans on my grocery list. I am so making this! Thank you Phyllis!
Thank you Phyllis Gods people are so pleasant to watch. Kind and peaceful
Hi Phyllis, I'm happy that Steely finally showed Sunny who the boss was. Children need to learn to respect their elders! Hope to hear from Steely on just how he did it. The cake looks delicious!
We'd really like to know how Steely accomplished this too. I've only seen the stare down coming from Steely, every time he does it Sunny sits down no matter what he's doing which is usually something bad.
Loved watching this today, Rest in Peace to both of you now you are back together. Was so sorry to hear Phyllis passed the other day.
Mmmmmm I think I'm going to try this and use peaches :)
Thanks for the video and inspiration. Love when you chat.
Being creative is always the thing that makes good recipes great! Go for the peaches, sounds good.
Peaches does sound good! Especially with pecans and coconut! :D
Vickie Lane me too. Fruit cocktail that you mix yourself is good. When you buy it in a can... It is awful. I saw this recipe and automatically thought peaches.
How did it come out with the peaches?
What a charming calming presence. She is a blessing.
I thought I had a can of fruit cocktail but it was actually apricots. I also didn't have pecans but I found some walnuts in the freezer. The cake turned out awesome. Since I live in California in an area where apricots and walnuts are plentiful, I guess my cake was a California earthquake cake LOL. Thanks for the recipe, it was delish!
Hi Phyllis! Enjoy your video's! 🙋 My mom, would make chocolate frosting, that you would heat on the stove. It was made with cocoa powder. It turned out very shinny & looked terrific on a cake! I think she called it fudge frosting. Have you ever made this? Esther from N.Y.
Well I just subscribed to her channel. And now I'm really bummed out after reading in the comments how she passed away. What a loss. RIP Ms.Phyllis. I fell in love with ur recipe. And ur soothing voice.
I had this cake in Georgia a LONG time ago lol ..but I can't recall the name . It was the same ingredients. Have to put Fruit Cocktail on my list (though I buy the one in fruit juice) Thanks Miss Phyllis!
Anita 3kids Me too It was called Fruit Cocktail Cake! I’ve had the recipe for at least thirty year’s! A blue ribbon for sure!
I really miss Phyllis. I'm happy for her and Mr. Bucky that they are in heaven enjoying eternity!
Hello Miss Phyllis - this cake looks super delicious; thanks for sharing. I luv when Mr. Bucky does the "taste test"... he just luvs everything you fix. I am glad Steely finally laid down the hammer!! I knew he would eventually. He was patient for long enough and it just had to be done. Thanks for another wonderful recipe. Take care ~kendra
Oh how I 😍 this sweet lady so thankful her sweet son put her videos back ❤ up ty very much
Wow, what a simple cake. Have to try that out for sure. 🍰. Looks delicious 😋
I love watching the videos. Phyllis reminds me of a friend I had many years ago.
I love and appreciate all the recipes🌺
Phyllis, I love finding your channel and watching you cook. I had this recipe years ago and made it for my office staff. Somewhere I lost my copy. Thank you so much for sharing this version. God bless.
