  1. Mystery Pudding is a great recipe, I discovered it here with the addition of the pecans after my best friend told me about his mother submitting it to Pilsbury ina contest over 50 years ago when she was the cook at the Rixy school when he was still in grade school. He is 66 now and was pretty sure of the ingredients. When I found this one it brought tears to his eyes to see that the recipe his mother made for school kids and won a prize for from Pilsbury is still out there and being used with the addition of pecans which they could never afford back in those days.<br/>He agrees that the pecans made a wonderful addition to the over all flavor. Our thanks to oilpatchjo for posting it and making an old fellow very happy.

I was so touched by the responses to my inquiries on Recipezaar. If it wasn't for the fact I lost my favourite cheesecake recipe and was determined to find one similar or the same I would not have found Reipezaar so I just have to tell my story. I had lost this recipe in moving and I bought several baking books and searched the web for months in my desperate search. Extremely late one night I found Recipezaar and posted my lost recipe as best as I could remember. The next day in the forum there it was posted the&nbsp;&nbsp;one and only lost cheesecake recipe. I knew it was the one from some of the ingredients. Several chefs gave me other recipes including New York Cheesecake by Tyler Florence which is wonderful as well which includes the Cherry Confit topping in the recipe which we adore. On September 19, 2006 this story had a happy ending with me finding my old cheesecake recipe. I thought I will never lose it again by posting it on Recipezaar.recipe #186938.That is why I'm hooked on this wonderful web site called Food!&nbsp;</p>
