I'm confused as to what to do with these ingredients... I'll probably come up with something in the middle of the night while trying to go to sleep! Will be doing a lot of thinking on this one  |

Its been a tough week, but the baby is finally feeling a little better, and mommy needed some chocolate cake. (we have all been there no?) so I thought I might as well adapt it to the challenge. And, I had all the ingredients. Stout Pumpkin Chocolate Cake with Pumpkin Pie Frostinghttp://feedingmaybellerecipes.blogspot.com/2009/01/stout-pumpkin-chocolate-cake-with.html i have a 6 inch cake to photograph tomorrow, but you get the point.... now i have to eat at least 2 more cupcakes. |

WOW I cannot believe that you have already posted a recipe this early in the month.....  Unfortunately halloween isn't a huge event here in Australia. Not everyone trick or treats except for a small few. But I must say I like these ingredients..... and I am sure I will participate this month. I have wanted to do so the last few months but outside of computer life was really busy!! Good luck everyone... |

Love that pumpkin pie frosting, Maybelle Mom!
May I ask for an ingredient clarification from the Queen? My celiac husband can't eat wheat, rye, barley and that eliminates most beers from his diet. There is a Redbridge beer made from sorghum that we buy at our supermarket that is gluten-free and safe for him to eat/drink, but it is an amber ale rather than a dark beer as called for in the ingredients list. Would this be acceptable to use for this Joust?
