Thanks.. but I dont have a goat.. or dairy cow .. so could I use whole milk??

and I think I posted it to late but can I make that pound cake chocoolate.. maybe put a 1/2 cup of cocoa in it??

You can make it with any milk. It will be good.

If you are using really good cocoa 5 or 6 tbsp should be plenty but I like dark chocolate flavors. 1/2 cup might be too much.

Add the cocoa to the dry ingredients. Then mix those with the wet.

You could mix the batter part way and taste and if you wanted more chocolate you could add more cocoa to the remaining dry ingredients before mixing them with the wet.

Let us know how it works out.

This cake sounds sooo good.

Miss Prissy are you going to get a cook book going??

The picture you took of the cake is mouth watering.

What a great way to use up some of these eggs.

Keljonma thanks for giving us the recipe.

MissPrissy, I read your ice cream recipe & I was suprised to see flour in it. I have never seen another ice cream recipe with flour in it except our family recipe I know is alest 4 generation old.

MissPrissy put me up to making this cake. I had never made a cake from scratch before (and only one ever from a box), and it turned out very well. I used a sheet pan instead because I didn't know what a tube pan was

and the byc members in chat helped walk me through it. I didn't tell my wife what I was doing because she was at work and would have rushed home to supervise or stop me. You should have seen the look on her face when she saw it.

PRICELESS!

While the cake turned out well, I learned some things that I will definitely do different next time- and I even want to try again.

Thanks for the help everyone- This was the cake the BYC built!

Chickee'sMom- Did you see how yellow it was? Nothing added for color. It was the richness of the fresh egg yolks.

WDPKS - It is the way I know to make it. The flour is the gauranteed thickener.

Jared - What will you do different next time? Wanna share with the class?
