I've had a taste for coconut cake lately.  I don't mind the baking.  It's just all the cleaning up.  LOL


@Bri369 : Well for me it includes all the prep and clean up. For the prep I always clean the counter top, the mixer and all the necessary measuring cups, spoons bowls etc. Then taking extra time to let all the refrigerator ingredients to set to room temperature, then the pre measuring and sifting. Then of course after the baking all the cleaning again especially if you make something from scratch.

Good Morning Y'all. My friend from Alabama ( 3 hour trip) will be visiting 7/30/22 and I always have something baked for her to take home. Her favorite is my creamed cheese pound cake but the weather has to be sunny and low humidity for great results. The weather has not cooperated. Well today is my only chance and will be sunny from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. and I am very slow. DH has agreed to go to Taco Bell before the baseball game at 1:30 to get us something to eat.

I hope to have the strength and energy to bake 3 pound cakes. This cake is great to put in the freezer. One pound cake for friend, one in freezer for DH birthday in September and one extra . Started yesterday rearranging the counter top and cleaning everything. I don't have the strength and energy to do everything in one day. Praying the results will look good and taste good. I hope to bake one in tube pan for friend and extras in loaf pans. The results are to suppose to look like this but considering me doing the baking🤷‍♀️😳:

I know y'all are really excited anticipating the results 😃 Plus the extra will be for y'all.

Y'all I need help. Got everything out of refrigerator at 6 and was in kitchen at 7 getting the ingredients ready . Just finished at 8 and taking short break. I need the small prep bowls or cups for the small ingredients like salt and vanilla. I need everything ready and to be setting next to the mixer in the order they are needed to prevent me for leaving an ingredient out. I know y'all are perfect and don't need this extra step. Mercy - I should have gotten up earlier. Me and my adventures. 🤗♥️🙏🙏🙏🙏

We all mess up.  

 

Do you triple the recipe or make one at a time.  That's a lot of work.
