I remember when I was young that we didn't have a lot of sweets. My aunt and I would get a piece of bread and butter it then sprinkle it with sugar to do a sweet.
Watching you bake and cook for your loved ones takes me back to a time when my grandmother was still living and how much I loved watching her make delicious meals. My mom is the same way. She can take simple ingredients and build a meal fit for a king. In my family, homemade food is equated with love and comfort and home. Thank you for giving us a glimpse into your life. I so enjoy it.
I've made this cake for years and it's always a hit! You can also add a small drained can of crushed pineapple to the sour cream filling after taking out the 1 cup for the topping that you mix with cool whip. I use the 2 packages of frozen Tropical Isle Coconut and I don't put it in the filling, but I cover the outside heavy with it. It is also a great make ahead of time cake to freeze.
Oh, I also don't put the coconut in the topping either, I mix the sour cream and cool whip up and put it all over the cake and then put the thawed frozen coconut all over the cake.
Makes me think of my Mama, coconut is her favorite. Wish I could make her one for tomorrow. She's 94 now and as you said we will do what we need to keep ourself and our loved ones safe. God bless you for this wonderful recipe, for taking your time to share. God bless you good folks and Happy Easter...
Growing up, we did the same with warm cake and we had margarine. Butter was fancy. But we sliced our serving of warm cake horizontal, slathered both sides with margarine. SO good!!
When I was little I remember my aunt and my mom making cakes like that with all the layers, my uncle used to make this amazing raisin bread and he used to tell me he was up all night with a toothpick puttin the raisins in.
I recently stopped making cakes, my husband won’t help me eat them, I end up eating the whole thing! Not that my cakes are bad, he’s an ice cream eater...which him & puppy like to share. I would say great “more for me,” but that also means more pant sizes!
Jane Martin that’s a great idea too, I have 2 sets of elderly couples on my block. People are afraid of other people’s cooking if clean etc., I know I am. I might try it and see, at least if they take it, it won’t be on my waist lol 😆
Shunshine Divine he helped me with the lemon cake two weeks ago, but last week I ate the whole carrot cake no kidding, I ate a huge piece every day. My weakness is cake, thinking maybe buy little Debbie individual cakes I guess, then I’ll probably eat 2 lol 😂
Guess what? My lovely wife made me a fish dinner, using your recipe. Real good! Now I want a coconut cake. I am keeping my fingers crossed. Have a blessed Easter! 🐰💐🌸🐇
I don’t know how we missed this video 🤷♀️ I’m going to make this for my husbands birthday! He LOVES coconut cake and he’ll really love it if I tell him it’s Ms Loris recipe! 😊 He’s a fisherman and he loved when you and your husband fried fish. Take care and God Bless!
Momma use to make her cakes from scratch mom always made homemade banana wafer pudding and my aunt made lots of layered cakes than the family would get together kids hunt eggs men would hunt mushrooms and ladies do the cooking what fond memories of the Easter years Happy Easter and God Bless you all
I love your channel! I can watch you for hours. You seem so caring, kind, and loving. Just good county folk. Thank you for sharing your words of wisdom and all of your cookin'
I remember being a little girl at my Grandma’s side and she began allowing me to do little things to help and explaining why. You are one of the few people I’ve ever seen dropping the cake pans to get the bubbles out. Thank you for all of the hard work that goes into making these videos.
You are so calming...love your videos! Wish everyone could go back to those days when life was beautiful. It still is but people are in such a hurry! 🌺🌸💖🌷🧁🥮🍪🍰
So comforting, sitting here, isolated for all this time. Feels like I'm sitting right there in the kitchen with you. Interesting to hear how everyone is dealing with this challenging time. Thank you!! Cake looks wonderful, too!
Coconut Cake is my favorite cake. Reminds me of my sweetest great aunt. I would ride a bus all by myself around a 90 minute ride at age 5 to visit her. Always had coconut cake ready for me. Wish I could go back in time. Looks so yummy. Thank you for taking the time to show us
What a beautiful cake. I'm inspired. My granddaughter's birthday is coming up and she wants a coconut mango cake. I'll use this recipe and alternate layers with mango filling and the sour cream filling. I'll put mango slices & a dusting of coconut on top. I'll make whipping cream for the frosting. I'll put edible flowers here and there. I'm so excited to try this. Thank you for sharing.
That looks so larapin good. I missed making a coconut cake to take to mama’s this Easter. It was one of my granddaddy’s favorite and he wasn’t able to eat it after he got older and had trouble with diverticulosis. One year I made the one with Eagle brand milk and cream of coconut with the cool whip icing. He was one happy man. Wish I could make him one now. Thanks for bringing back happy memories.
This brought back good memories! When our children were still at home, I always made a coconut cake for Easter. Our children are all grown with children of their own, so I no longer make coconut cake for Easter! Thank you for sharing your recipe, I always look forward to your CZcams videos! God bless you and Mr. Brown!
I remember my mamma making this cake when I was about 20 years old. My daddy found the recipe in a South Carolina newspaper. I'm 62 now. She would keep it in the fridge for 3 days before we could cut a piece and that was so hard to wait. LOL Thank you thank you thank you for sharing this. I don't know what happened to her recipe but I'm so happy to have it again. Love you. God's love, blessings and protection on you and your family 💜👍😎
I always had a choice for my birthday cake growing up and this was it. I remember licking the beaters and scraping the bowl with my fingers, good memories (I still lick the batter off the beaters and bowl and I'm 57, lol). Have a blessed Easter Lori and Danny
I am so happy for this recipe. My grandmother made a coconut cake that no one else could come close to, and no one knows the recipe. I think this is that recipe!! Yay! I will be making this as soon as I can get the ingredients. Thanks for sharing 😁😁🥰
I so enjoyed watching you make this cake. I spent many holidays with my mom making all kinds of cakes. coconut was her favorite too. Thanks for bringing back good memories with my mom.
Happy and Blessed Easter to You and Mr Brown and your entire family Miss Lori! Thank again for your wonderful videos and sharing your amazing life with all of us! Keeping you in my prayers as always during these difficult days and praying that God continues to bless you and yours....Love, Rus from Bucks County Pa ❤🐰🐣🐇🐥
Miss Lori, I just showed a few of my coworkers your cake...we all agreed to start putting bids on it 😂 It looks delicious!! Coconut is actually my favorite so I was pretty excited when you made your coconut pies..Anything coconut makes me very happy. Happy Easter to everyone🐰❤🐇
Oh my gosh - I hurt myself twice in recent days on this cake! So good! I didn’t have coconut extract so I used two tsp of vanilla extract. This cake would be very good with fresh fruit, or even by itself with no frosting.
Happy Easter Lori, Danny & Family. May the Lord keep you all healthy & safe. God's blessings! Your coconut cake looks so delicious! Thank you for the recipe.💜🙏
Lori I swear I could smell that cake when you took it out of the oven.lol. Pie is my favorite,but I do love coconut cake. Your voice is so smoothing I went to sleep on this video and had to listen to it again.haha.I have watched you yesterday and today. Love to help you get in wood . Got bless,love ya.
I always enjoy your videos. My mother in love always makes this cake for Easter. This year won’t be the same. She is 84 years old and we wont be together this to enjoy a meal. M mouth was watering as you iced the cake. Hope y’all have a wonderful day! Blessings to you and Mr. Brown.
LOVE this cake! My aunt Margaret would make it for me on my birthday which is Valentines Day, she’d always decorate it by making a heart on top out of the little round red hots candy. It was delicious!!!! Thanks for reminding me of that! Love y’all, stay safe and praise God on the mountains as well as the valleys! ♥️
I think I found your cookbook on Ebay. I will know when it gets here. My mother in law used to make a huge coconut cake for Easter. This one reminds me of it. Blessings to you and yours.
I love coconut cake and this one looks fantastic! I have to try it! Thank you Lori for this recipe and for your wonderful channel. I love trying out your recipes!
Yum! Buttercream-frosted coconut cake with homemade vanilla ice cream. Most scratch-made cakes are easy to do. We learned to make very successful ones as children. That miniature pickup truck in the thumbnail is adorable. It looks like the dark blue Chevy truck our neighbor had. He was a landscape gardener for Hollywood superstars and, like his beautiful house, it was kept in meticulous condition. I found a wonderful cotton quilt panel with a red Christmas tree pickup truck scene. The artist print will be made into a large, warm lap quilt when the right binding and fleece backing patterns are found.
Spring is upon us and a yummy from scratch coconut cake is on the menu. Thank you sweet lady for all of your videos, they bring such comfort and good education for the next generation. 💕🐇💕
Delicious cake! We have always made this cake. In my old worn local cookbook, it was called sour cream coconut cake. I just ordered your cookbook. It is so heartwarming to watch your videos. You remind of my mother and aunts-all of them are gone now, but we have wonderful memories. Easter Peace and Blessings to you and your family.
I snagged me a copy of that cookbook on line!! My husband was really raving about that cake. So, I'll have to bake one. God bless you and your family over this Easter!! 😀
Lori reminds me of the perfect mix between my mom and my Grandma’s personality - and even looks!! They were both very beautiful and amazing women who are no longer here with me. So, that’s one of the several reasons watching Lori cook brings me comfort.
First I want to say Happy Easter. coconut cake is one of my favorites, I just put in the oven a apple cake for tomorrow. Enjoy your weekend, oh today is Randy's Birthday.
Coconut Cake was always my favorite when I was a kid. Now it's Italian Cream Cake, but I still love Coconut Cake. Thank you, Miss Lori. May you and Mr. Brown and your family stay safe.
I am the only one in my family that likes coconut at all! And I love it, but I will have to enjoy your video cake or have a lot of my own coconut cake packed away in the freezer. It looks wonderful!
This video brought up memories of my mom's Easter Bunny coconut cakes that she decorated for the grandkids. It was a recipe from her coworker who got it from a Better Homes & Gardens magazine in the late 1980s. She baked 2 white cake rounds, leaving one cake round whole for the bunny's face, and placed on a jelly roll pan to serve from. She cut 2 of the outer edges off of the other cake round for ears, cut 2 triangles for a bowtie, and the last cake piece remaining was cut with a biscuit cutter into two rounds for the bunny's puffy cheeks. Whipped icing glues the pieces together, then the entire assembly is all covered in the whipped icing. A generous amount of coconut flakes are tossed over all. Two milk chocolate Hershey kisses are the eyes, 3 inch strips of red licorice are the whiskers set into the puffy cheeks, and colored sprinkles are pressed onto the bowtie--or toss a half cup of coconut in a bowl with a few drops of blue food coloring and a few drops of cold water--to make a solid blue bowtie. Place lots of jelly beans, M&Ms, Skittles, or Reese's Pieces in the spaces on the pan surrounding the Bunny. Thanks, Lori and Danny for sharing your lives with us. I hope all are healthy and have some happiness this Easter!
That is one amazing cake. I adore coconut. So I shall make this, also I shall have a look on Amazon U.K. to see if I can find your cookery book. Thank you for sharing this lovely recipe. Happy Easter to you and your family. I shall be FaceTiming my 3 grandchildren tomorrow. Stay safe 🐰🐰🥚🥚🐣🐣🐣 👍😎

Alice Milling I feel your ache to hold that new baby. We still haven’t seen our 10th grand baby, little Rosalind born January 1. At that time I was recovering from a cancer surgery so we thought we’d go see her in March but the world changed and we haven’t been able to go see them. They live in Colorado and we live in New Mexico. But we have to be safe. Take care!
You'll be fine the CDC admits there's no pandemic we should have never shut down the economy because there's a natural cure hydroxchloriquine or tonic water and vitamin zinc vitamin D and C please wake up. Heavenly father help people wake up Amen and Amen

I love coconut cake! My Mom use to make one that had 7 minute frosting!! So delicious!! She also made one with pineapple in it. The Best!! Love you guys and have a blessed Easter as well! Stay safe🙏🏻🤗❤️🎂🐇
One of my amazing favorite cakes, I call this cake ' 3 day cake ' I make this cake and put it in my outside frig.so out of sight out of mine haha, or if we go out of town for a weekend its ready when I get home, the longer it sit the better. God bless and Happy Easter too you and Mr. Brown and you family.XoXo
Wishing you and Mr Brown a Blessed Easter. I so long to work in my yard. But I have been fighting cancer for 10 years. I love to watch you play in your yard. Thank you and Mr Brown for brighting our lives
I made your lunch lady cinnamon rolls last week and again for Easter. They were a gigantic hit with our family! Thank you for your recipes and God Bless you and your family!
Darling decor!!! ESPECIALLY the napkins!!! Only one of my four kids and i likes coconut... so I made an orange poke cake, instead. Save me a piece of yours, please!!!😄👍😄
I love coconut cake and coconut pie. I’ll have to try this recipe. ❤️ Have you ever heard of an oatmeal cake? My mother in law used to make one. She’s from AR and also lived in Houston for many years, so I thought if it’s a southern recipe you may have heard of it as well. As always, I’m enjoying your vids! Happy Easter and God bless. ✝️
Brings back good memories! My mama made this cake every Christmas. 3 days or so ahead and let it sit in the refrigerator. It was soooo good! Thank you Mrs. Lori.
This reminds me of watching my grandma cooking. She was an excellent baker. I have so many memories of watching and eating at my grandparents house. ❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉
I've mentioned that my Mom baked for our school system. This morning my niece told me that people were talking about her desserts on the local Facebook page. Now realize that she would have just celebrated her 100th birthday, so it's been awhile since she worked there. They wanted the recipe for her Blueberry Torte which was to die for. I don't do Facebook, so I gave the recipe to my niece and she posted it. They were happy campers! Mom always made coconut cake with jelly beans on top for Easter.
This cake looks Amazing! I can imagine how precious this cookbook is to you! Amazon is out of it, however they recommended a place where I found it and I ordered it tonight. God Bless you and Mr Brown!
Lori, well loved cookbooks are the best, aren't they? Pages wear out, but memories don't. Your cake looks awesome! Really rich and tender. Wish I had a slice right now! I hope the two of you have a wonderful and blessed Easter. Stay home and stay well!! 🐰🐥🐇🐣🐑
I remember when I was young that we didn't have a lot of sweets. My aunt and I would get a piece of bread and butter it then sprinkle it with sugar to do a sweet.

Oh, I also don't put the coconut in the topping either, I mix the sour cream and cool whip up and put it all over the cake and then put the thawed frozen coconut all over the cake.
I’m with you, cake batter, cookie batter never hurt me either
We've made this cake forever here in the Virginia Mountains. Still my 86 year old dad's favorite.
Ordering this cookbook! Reminds me of the chicken and dumplings type of recipes that my Mom taught me. Sweet, precious memories.
Makes me think of my Mama, coconut is her favorite. Wish I could make her one for tomorrow. She's 94 now and as you said we will do what we need to keep ourself and our loved ones safe. God bless you for this wonderful recipe, for taking your time to share. God bless you good folks and Happy Easter...

SO good!!
When I was little I remember my aunt and my mom making cakes like that with all the layers, my uncle used to make this amazing raisin bread and he used to tell me he was up all night with a toothpick puttin the raisins in.
DynamoHumm uncles are such a tease lol 😆
@@conniemiller411 Hey, I'm an uncle now myself and I'm the same way
Best part of being an Uncle (or an Aunt!!😜)
Lol I’m considered “The Crazy Aunt”, isn’t it fun giving those youngsters mischievous information
I love it!! "Up all night putting the raisins in." That's great! :)
I recently stopped making cakes, my husband won’t help me eat them, I end up eating the whole thing! Not that my cakes are bad, he’s an ice cream eater...which him & puppy like to share. I would say great “more for me,” but that also means more pant sizes!
Connie Miller yes cake and me go up in size and it gets expensive.
But maybe freeze the cake in a container cut in pieces .
Debbie altman true that 😋
I'm sure you could find some neighbors or friends who'd love a piece or two. A lot of older women quit baking and would just love some homemade cake!
Jane Martin that’s a great idea too, I have 2 sets of elderly couples on my block. People are afraid of other people’s cooking if clean etc., I know I am. I might try it and see, at least if they take it, it won’t be on my waist lol 😆
Shunshine Divine he helped me with the lemon cake two weeks ago, but last week I ate the whole carrot cake no kidding, I ate a huge piece every day. My weakness is cake, thinking maybe buy little Debbie individual cakes I guess, then I’ll probably eat 2 lol 😂
I'm so sorry, I missed this! Making it! Love watching you bake.
A well-used cookbook! Speaks volumes about what’s inside! Love me some coconut cake!!! Thanks Lori! I will try this!
House looks so inviting. May the Holy Spirit cover you all !! Blessings !!!
Guess what? My lovely wife made me a fish dinner, using your recipe. Real good! Now I want a coconut cake. I am keeping my fingers crossed. Have a blessed Easter! 🐰💐🌸🐇
I don’t know how we missed this video 🤷♀️ I’m going to make this for my husbands birthday! He LOVES coconut cake and he’ll really love it if I tell him it’s Ms Loris recipe! 😊 He’s a fisherman and he loved when you and your husband fried fish. Take care and God Bless!
Thank you Debbie, its wonderful!
Tell him we said Happy Birthday! Xoxoxo

You are so calming...love your videos! Wish everyone could go back to those days when life was beautiful. It still is but people are in such a hurry! 🌺🌸💖🌷🧁🥮🍪🍰
Your home is so cozy and watching you cook reminds me of my Tennessee Grandma. Thank you❤️❤️❤️❤️
So comforting, sitting here, isolated for all this time. Feels like I'm sitting right there in the kitchen with you. Interesting to hear how everyone is dealing with this challenging time. Thank you!! Cake looks wonderful, too!
One of my earliest food memories is of this cake. I am almost 60 years old now and I still remember eating this cake.
Coconut Cake is my favorite cake. Reminds me of my sweetest great aunt. I would ride a bus all by myself around a 90 minute ride at age 5 to visit her. Always had coconut cake ready for me. Wish I could go back in time. Looks so yummy. Thank you for taking the time to show us
I love your chicken apron, Mrs. Lori!
My first cookbook from my wedding was in 1979 too 🙂 It is still my go too cookbook to this day
What a beautiful cake. I'm inspired. My granddaughter's birthday is coming up and she wants a coconut mango cake.

There are a lot of yummy looking things in there.
I love your bowls. Thank you so much for sharing.
I am so happy for this recipe. My grandmother made a coconut cake that no one else could come close to, and no one knows the recipe. I think this is that recipe!! Yay! I will be making this as soon as I can get the ingredients. Thanks for sharing 😁😁🥰
Beautiful cake, have a blessed Easter.
I was taught to tunk my cakes too..🙂 im gonna have to make this for my mom she will love it!!

You just made my wedding cake from 1963 Thank You .Oh bye the way I still have my cookbook from then >>3
Oh my gosh - I hurt myself twice in recent days on this cake! So good! I didn’t have coconut extract so I used two tsp of vanilla extract. This cake would be very good with fresh fruit, or even by itself with no frosting.
Just a good old fashioned cake recipe! Xoxoxo
Happy Easter
Lori, Danny & Family.
May the Lord keep you all healthy & safe. God's blessings!
Your coconut cake looks so delicious! Thank you for the recipe.💜🙏

I saw "coconut cake" and my heart swooned! 🤣
Linda Stephenson Yessss!!! Mine too💛
I am a coconut FREAK !!!!! 😍

You are a precious soul. Happy Easter to you and Mr Brown and family. May our Heavenly Father's choicest blessing be with all of you.
I love coconut!!! I am going to give this one a try. I don't think it will last very long!!!😁😁😁 Thank you Lori!!
No it wont, using a cake mix is just as good and faster! Xoxoxo
I love coconut cake and this one looks fantastic! I have to try it! Thank you Lori for this recipe and for your wonderful channel. I love trying out your recipes!
Yum! Buttercream-frosted coconut cake with homemade vanilla ice cream. Most scratch-made cakes are easy to do. We learned to make very successful ones as children.
That miniature pickup truck in the thumbnail is adorable. It looks like the dark blue Chevy truck our neighbor had. He was a landscape gardener for Hollywood superstars and, like his beautiful house, it was kept in meticulous condition.
I found a wonderful cotton quilt panel with a red Christmas tree pickup truck scene. The artist print will be made into a large, warm lap quilt when the right binding and fleece backing patterns are found.
My mother and my aunts made this cake and they frosted it with seven minute frosting and sprinkled shredded coconut on the top and sides.
Your cookbook is like a velveteen rabbit. It is well loved. Love your channel. Hallelujah! HE is Risen!
Spring is upon us and a yummy from scratch coconut cake is on the menu. Thank you sweet lady for all of your videos, they bring such comfort and good education for the next generation. 💕🐇💕
Delicious cake! We have always made this cake. In my old worn local cookbook, it was called sour cream coconut cake. I just ordered your cookbook. It is so heartwarming to watch your videos.

I snagged me a copy of that cookbook on line!! My husband was really raving about that cake. So, I'll have to bake one. God bless you and your family over this Easter!! 😀
I did the same thing. I can not wait to get it in the mail.
Yep, any cookbook that "used" is a good one!
Lori reminds me of the perfect mix between my mom and my Grandma’s personality - and even looks!! They were both very beautiful and amazing women who are no longer here with me. So, that’s one of the several reasons watching Lori cook brings me comfort.
First I want to say Happy Easter. coconut cake is one of my favorites, I just put in the oven a apple cake for tomorrow. Enjoy your weekend, oh today is Randy's Birthday.
Oh my goodness Lori! This cake looks so good! Don't forget to give Mr. Brown the "cake humps". LOL You two have a blessed Easter.
Coconut cake has always been the real signal that "Spring is here" for our family. My grandmother made it every year.
Coconut Cake was always my favorite when I was a kid. Now it's Italian Cream Cake, but I still love Coconut Cake. Thank you, Miss Lori. May you and Mr. Brown and your family stay safe.
Looks delicious! Love coconut cake. Happy Easter, God Bless!
Love coconut everything!! And old cook books too! A most blessed Easter to you and all of us - and a prayer for good health and inner peace 💖
I had to smile when u said u haven't found a cake u didn't like Lori....I know that feeling too well! Thank u and Happy Easter to u and your family 🐣
I am the only one in my family that likes coconut at all! And I love it, but I will have to enjoy your video cake or have a lot of my own coconut cake packed away in the freezer. It looks wonderful!
That cake looks so yummy! I love coconut too! HAPPY EASTER,❤️🙏🏻
I love your channel, Lori!! You are such a talented lady!!! I’m going to try this recipe for sure! Stay safe.💗
Love this cake brings back some great memories for me as a young girl going to visit my aunty and uncle. 🙂❤️
That looks delicious Lori hope you have and Mr Brown have a blessed Easter 🙏🐰🌷🐣
Sounds so good writing this down for later. Thank you so much You Rock. The cookbook is not in stalk right now.

Two milk chocolate Hershey kisses are the eyes, 3 inch strips of red licorice are the whiskers set into the puffy cheeks, and colored sprinkles are pressed onto the bowtie--or toss a half cup of coconut in a bowl with a few drops of blue food coloring and a few drops of cold water--to make a solid blue bowtie. Place lots of jelly beans, M&Ms, Skittles, or Reese's Pieces in the spaces on the pan surrounding the Bunny.
Thanks, Lori and Danny for sharing your lives with us.

Alice Milling I feel your ache to hold that new baby. We still haven’t seen our 10th grand baby, little Rosalind born January 1. At that time I was recovering from a cancer surgery so we thought we’d go see her in March but the world changed and we haven’t been able to go see them. They live in Colorado and we live in New Mexico. But we have to be safe. Take care!
@@brendameyer3055 God bless you and your family Brenda 🙏🌻
We will see our babies soon and give them all our love😊
Be safe and well

I made your lunch lady cinnamon rolls last week and again for Easter. They were a gigantic hit with our family! Thank you for your recipes and God Bless you and your family!
Happy Easter! I’ll take a piece😋looks so tasty, thanks for sharing, God bless🙏❤️
Darling decor!!! ESPECIALLY the napkins!!! Only one of my four kids and i likes coconut... so I made an orange poke cake, instead. Save me a piece of yours, please!!!😄👍😄
I love coconut cake and coconut pie. I’ll have to try this recipe. ❤️ Have you ever heard of an oatmeal cake? My mother in law used to make one. She’s from AR and also lived in Houston for many years, so I thought if it’s a southern recipe you may have heard of it as well. As always, I’m enjoying your vids! Happy Easter and God bless. ✝️
Brings back good memories! My mama made this cake every Christmas. 3 days or so ahead and let it sit in the refrigerator. It was soooo good! Thank you Mrs. Lori.
This reminds me of watching my grandma cooking. She was an excellent baker. I have so many memories of watching and eating at my grandparents house. ❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉
I've mentioned that my Mom baked for our school system. This morning my niece told me that people were talking about her desserts on the local Facebook page. Now realize that she would have just celebrated her 100th birthday, so it's been awhile since she worked there. They wanted the recipe for her Blueberry Torte which was to die for. I don't do Facebook, so I gave the recipe to my niece and she posted it. They were happy campers! Mom always made coconut cake with jelly beans on top for Easter.
This cake looks Amazing! I can imagine how precious this cookbook is to you! Amazon is out of it, however they recommended a place where I found it and I ordered it tonight. God Bless you and Mr Brown!
Why don't you share where you got it.? Do you leave out something in a recipe when someone asks for it? Hummm??
Love this cake! Will be making one this coming week. Love your channel!! God Bless Ya'all 💖
I love coconut too....but I’m the only one in the family! The cake is undoubtedly awesome! Have a wonderful Easter sweet lady!
Oh my goodness, Ms Lori! I love coconut. I am excited to try this delicious recipe! Happy Easter to you and Mr. Brown.
Lori, well loved cookbooks are the best, aren't they? Pages wear out, but memories don't. Your cake looks awesome! Really rich and tender. Wish I had a slice right now! I hope the two of you have a wonderful and blessed Easter. Stay home and stay well!! 🐰🐥🐇🐣🐑
Your cake looks delicious. It reminds me a lot of my mother's "4-day make-ahead cake." It was always a favorite at family gatherings.
