Hi Tammy,

You're making me blush, but many thanks!

Actually, I do use a "chili powder" rather than cayenne pepper, but it's
not a blend. I use New Mexico Chili Power which is just ground New Mexico
chili peppers. Plain ground Ancho chili peppers could also be used.

I'm sure that cayenne could be used in this recipe and would probably be
very good, but 2 teaspoons might be a bit too hot. If using cayenne, I
would start with less, perhaps 1/2 to 1 teaspoon. Taste and add more if it
tastes too tame.

Your friend...
