I am proudly one of those non-chocolate people, and I have a recent obsession with all things Bundt, so I was excited to make this cake for my coconut-loving mother for Mother's Day. The finished product looked gorgeous, but weighed a TON and when we cut it, it didn't have that creamy coconutty center. It was just kind of a dense solid mass. I think maybe I didn't whip the egg whites long enough...? It still tasted good but, I thought I'd see if you could detect my error!
Love the blog - my mom and sister and I are planning a weekend trip to Vermont in June and KAF is on our list! In fact, my sister and I gave her a KAF gift certificate for Mother's Day! :) Thanks!!!
Perhaps you are right, Aimee. Your whites need to be fairly stiff and shiny. The whites should hold there shape. Enjoy your trip to VT! Elisabeth @ KAF
