That cake looks soooo good. When I think about fresh coconut, I think about my GreatGranddaddy,, he would always have fresh coconut cut up and a big peppermint stick that he would break up, that was our CHRISTmas treat from him.It was so good. PRAYERS
That looks DELICIOUS!!! I love lemon and coconut, so how can it not be? And, I don't get the big deal about the word "moist", either. I used to make and decorate custom cakes, and my cakes were moist. Moist, moist, moist. lol Haha I probably just put someone over the edge. I don't get out much, let me have my fun. =D =D =D Thanks so much for sharing!
@@TheFarmingPastorsWife No it wasn’t fast we watched it on another iPad, then I got on mine to comment. It was a mess. We have tried several coconut cake recipes lately, yours was the best so far. The one from Paula Deen, second.
You are so blessed by having your mother's recipes in her handwriting! The cake sounds like a keeper. And moist is a very good word! Who would want it to be dry? 😂
Looks amazing. Just thought about a Kitchen Aide accessory you might enjoy as much as I like mine. It is the splatter guard for the mixer. It fits right over the mixing bowl and has a shute for adding the dry and liquid ingredients. I was having to cover my mixer with a tea towel to prevent my powder sugar from flying. Works like a dream.
I use the same words as you did.It doesn’t offend me.I see nothing wrong with super moist.It isn’t a curse word.Ask whom ever it offends why those words are offensive.Love the cake recipe,can’t wait to make one.😋
Oh my goodness!! I'm definitely going to make this!!! Thank you for sharing!! Judah is such a great kid! He is confident and well adjusted! Great job bubbles!
Awesome video, Ms Leslie! Thank you for sharing your Mom’s recipe for this lovely cake. It looks so beautiful and delicious! I have to try it! Judah was so cute in the background. He makes me laugh out loud! I know Pastor Bryant was really happy to be the taste tester! Love you guys, God bless you all ❤️🙏🤗
Hi , My goodness, I have done the same thing till I Learned too always dampen the flour in the wet ingredients you already have in your bowl. The Flour is stable then and will not make your clothes white. lol, It works!! Love your channel so much. God Bless You and All Your Family.
Leslie, you are the most beautiful and real person I follow. I showed one of my friends your channel and she said, “She is beautiful!” I replied “inside and out.” Nothing fake about her. Stay the way you are. 💕💕 Bryant is a nice bonus.
That looks so good. Older people can just cook good. My grandmother lived with us when my grandad died suddenly. She could make all that good stuff. Be glad she left recipes. She didnt write things down. Have fun tonight!! One to go.
I like it when you have the full frame of you and what you're making at the same time I think that was better like you did a couple times last week also they make splatter guards for them now too that would help you out a lot you wouldn't be wearing the flour if you had that on Leslie here is another good tip for you before you ice in your cakes stick it in the refrigerator for five or 10 minutes and then it won't rip your cake while you are frosting it I bake cakes off and on for a couple years and that's what my teacher had told me to do it keeps it moist and without ripping your cake to shreds
The cake looks amazing! I love coconut cake! My mom had a special coconut cake recipe as well. Funny how food can drum up special memories. Think I might try your cake this weekend!
Leslie I’m so happy you made this sheet cake that’s my favorite cake oh my gosh and you make it look so easy I will try to make it and I will get back with you to let you know how it turned out God bless you and your family take care with love June
I’m definitely going to have to try this it looks amazing. Lemon and coconut are mine and my dads favorite. I’m not sure why people don’t like the word moist. I love a cake that is moist and that’s the best way to describe it. I’ve been loving watching your channel. My mom is originally from NC . We live in SC but all of her family lives in Ashenoro so we go there a lot.
@@TheFarmingPastorsWife Her maiden names was Jordan. The road beside Ridge funeral home she lived back in that are on Dairy Street. Her brother was a Math teacher Sam Jordan . I have a question was it all purpose or self rising flour you used?
Yes - thar zest just has so much oil in it that it becomes really hard to sprinkle. I usually just hold my microplane right over what I'm putting it on. As you said, putting it in the coconut/powdered sugar mixture would have been great but maybe adding a teaspoon of powdered sugar to the zest might have worked and made it easier to sprinkle? I'm always forgetting to do a step and having to figure out how to (nicely) recover - ha! Life just wouldn't be that interesting if we did everything by the book. . .
That looks so delicious Leslie I can’t wait to try it and try it on my family and kids are not crazy about coconut but at least they’ll try it I love coconut it was my mom‘s favorite cake especially for Easter 🐣 so I’m going to try it this weekend for Sunday dinner and your lemon 🍋 pound cake I’m going to try that one also she love lemon 🍋 pancake 😋 thank you so much for sharing ….
That looked amazing!! I'm glad I'm not the only one that wears what I'm baking. LOL I know it's good if it's all over my shirt and I burn myself on the oven. haha
Leslie you are talking Greg’s Language he loves Coconut and loves Lemon ! I’m going have to make this for him soon !! I’m Binge watching to catch up on your videos ! 🧡🤍Ren !
I keep talking lol. Just was thinking, I think maybe if you mix the zest into the coconut before sprinkling it onto the cake 🎂 or just zest sraight onto the cake
It looks and sounds delicious. The only thing I would change is the coconut. I use Angel flake coconut. I will definitely try these one Thank you for sharing.🤗🤗
This looks like a great cake. My husband loves coconut. But we don't have frozen coconut up here in Calgary Alberta Canada. I just got some bakers shredded coconut on line from Amazon as we no longer get that here anymore. Can I use it in this cake in place of the frozen one? Thanks so much for your help. I really love your videos. I have 6 grandchildren and I know how your attention goes off the task, you are doing when they are around. It also happened when my 4 children were small. Children always want your undivided attention all the time lol
That cake looked amazing Leslie. The word I can't stand is BELLY even typing it makes me cringe 🤪. My butcher knows me now and he'll ask if I want some tummy pork this week.😄. Take Care Hugs UK
My husband is not a fan of coconut. On the other hand, he loves lemon cake. I may try your recipe and only use lemon flavoring with a splash of vanilla. Then, I can make a lemon icing with some lemon zest sprinkled on top. You saying, "Bewicious!" reminds me of my son. He could not say ridiculous. It always came out, "Diriculous". May God bless...
That was really good that she did that for you. Black walnuts is one flavor I don’t like. English walnuts and pecans and Macadamia nuts but not Black walnuts.
Oh my gooooooodnessssssss I will definitely be making this cake. Thank you for sharing your mom’s recipe ❤️how many calories are you allowing yourself daily?
It's so funny that you said people don't like the word moist my daughter is the same way I don't know when it became a bad word but that's the best description of a moist cake right?
Well tonight was the last night of our VBS, there were so many kids that attended, almost 300 each night. and 11 of those kids got saved this week, and the kids collected over 1500.00 to send to missions. It was a blast. we do penny drive during this week, they bring all coins they can each night. there teachers always helps out. it was the boys against the girls, and of course the girls won again this year. Yay.
No we have around 500, but this Church is so giving, there have been a lot of people been out because of Illness , or vacations, but our Pastor asked everyone to plan there vacations around this event , to help . we spend a lot of money for this VBS, but it's worth it if it gets the kids out off the streets. we do horse rides, we have a blown up mechanical bull ride, one of those mini barrel trains, and few other things. It's like a mini carnival. It's only four nights ,but it's always a success, they also make a good meal each night for the adults, we drive over within several towns around us to pick up kids who want to come. we are truly blessed with everything that 's involved with this event. Our church has truly grown in the last 4 years.
My sweet mom in love made a delicious coconut cake that was better eaten fresh because she made the 7-minute frosting and it always dried too much after it set a day or two. I laughed when you said "ain't nobody got time for that" because I say it too. Also, my girls do not like the words moist or tender, lol, and they are 40 & 36.
My grandma used to make what she called an "All Day Pecan Cake." It was legendary! Unfortunately, she died right after I was born and nobody in the family seems to know how she made it. All I know is that it was three layers and the cake had pecans in it and the icing was made from pecans ... and my grandma would have to pound the pecans with a meat tenderizer for hours to turn them into paste that, when mixed with sugar and other mystery ingredients was the consistency and texture of icing. I would love to try that cake. Like I said, everyone in the family talks about it ... but nobody remembers how to make it.
