Humming Bird Cake

The basic recipe for this came from http://www.myrecipes.com/ I made a few changes to some ingredients but added no extra, I ended up with 2 cakes, I suggest if you follow this recipe you bake 2 cakes the same size and stack them with cream in the middle, wish I did. The slight changes I made are in bold next to the original recipe.
Humming Bird Cake recipes My name is Roz but lots call me Rosie. Welcome to Rosies Home Kitchen. I moved from the UK to France in 2005, gave up my business and with my husband, Paul, and two sons converted a small cottage in rural Brittany to our home Half Acre Farm. It was here after years of ready meals and take aways in the UK I realised that I could cook. Paul also learned he could grow vegetables and plant fruit trees; we also keep our own poultry for meat and eggs. Shortly after finishing the work on our house we was featured in a magazine called Breton and since then Ive been featured in a few magazines for my food. My two sons now have their own families but live near by and Im now the proud grandmother of two little boys. Both of my daughter in laws are both great cooks. My cooking is home cooking, but often with a French twist, my videos are not there to impress but inspire, So many people say that they cant cook, but we all can, you just got to give it a go. 1 1/2 cups chopped pecans (Dry roasted walnuts)

Chop the walnuts and dry roast by putting in a frying pan, no oil, and gently browning them, set to one side.

For the icing beat together the Cheese, Icing suger, vanilla and 1 tbsp water, then if needed add a little more water till you have a thick but slightly liquid icing and spoon over the cakes.

Sprinkle the last of the nuts on top.
