Honey Catering

In late 2020 struck up an unlikely friendship with a Jehovah’s Witness. I tell the story of my new friend Mrs. Dorsie in my latest food column Buzz Worthy Bites. Below is an excerpt from the column and Mrs. Dorsie’s recipe for Red Velvet Cake. I made the drive one Friday afternoon before Christmas to Screven County to visit Mrs. Dorsie and take her picture. She navigated me down a dirt lane and through a field flanked by the homes of various family members. She was cookin...g an early supper of fried catfish because cooking some type of fish is her Friday tradition. We had a lovely talk about her faith as a Jehovah Witness and my faith as a Christian. Turns out we are not all that different. Our love for people is a common thread.

Vanilla Icing: 1 stick butter 1 8oz block Cream Cheese 1 lb Powdered Sugar 1 tsp. Vanilla c Pecans Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream sugar and oil together until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time. Add food coloring and vinegar. Combine all dry ingredients and sift 8 times. (Mrs. Dorsie says this is the secret.) Add dry ingredients and buttermilk alternately to red mixture and mix until combined. Add vanilla and mix. Grease 3 round cake pans and line with parchment paper. Pour batter evenly into prepared pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes. Let cool completely. Cream softened cream cheese and butter. Add confectioners’ sugar and vanilla. Beat until combined. Ice cake and sprinkle with roasted pecans. I doubled the recipe for icing because the icing is my favorite part!
