DiscussionsPillsbury Recipe Magazine & Cookbooks

Hello, I was wondering if someone here might be able to help me.  My mother used to make a cake she called a Confetti Torte.  She claims it was a Pillsbury Bake off recipe, but I have looked and can't find it any where.  It's basically a white cake with a whip cream frosting that has cherries, walnuts, and a chopped up chocolate bar in it.  If anybody is familiar with the recipe and might know where to find it, please let me know!

Thanks for your help!

Hope this is the one you were looking for. Sincerely, Cate
