• 4. *nuts- my favorite is pistachios, then pecans, my dads favorite is walnuts and my grandma's favorite is black walnuts...so the choice is yours! *I've added dried cherries to this before, add with the nuts. *Also, I've used light sour cream and it's turned out just fine. *Also, when time to beat, I use a hand held electric mixer, my mom has always beat by hand, so either method works just fine, though if using a mixer, it cools much faster, so watch it closely as you want to pour it as soon as it starts to loose it's gloss. If you wait to long it will harden and you won't be able to pour it, let alone spread it in the pan. :)
