  • I made this recipe for a couple of reasons, a tree full of persimmons and a pot luck at work. It was good but I would increase the spices a bit. Put the eggs in after the butter and sugar. I used a 9x9 glass pan at 300F. It took a long time to bake 11/2 -2 hours until it felt done. I iced them with a thin icing that I used 1Tbs. of brandy instead of vanilla. Cut them into 1 inch squares after icing.
