This may be MORE than a challenge because the flours don't substitute in equal amounts. The coconut flour rule-of-thumb is use 1 whole egg per ounce of coconut flour or 6-eggs per 1/2 c. coconut flour. I'd suggest doing a search on-line for cake recipes using coconut flour or you may end up with a lot of wasted ingredients and time. I realize this recipe has little in common with the recipe you are trying to make, but it will give you an idea of the ratio of eggs to coconut flour for a 9" square cake. I've never made it (due to the number of eggs needed). WILLIAMSBURG ORANGE CAKE (source: Cooking with Coconut Flour by Bruce Fife, N.D.) 1/2 c. butter, melted 12 eggs 3/4 c. sugar 1 t. salt 1 t. vanilla 1 c.

I just received the two recipes below in my email. Think they sound interesting. Sara Lee Pound Cake Author: CopyKat Recipes Prep time: 15 minutes Cook time: 45 minutes Serves: 10 Sara Lee Pound cake was one of my first recipes at CopyKat.com, after reading the ingredients on the package; I set out to re-create this famous pound cake just like the original. 1/4 pound or 1stick unsalted butter 3/4 cup sugar 3 eggs 1 cup cake flour 2 tablespoons dry powdered milk 1 tablespoon corn syrup Juice of half a small lemon 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon vanilla 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon mace (optional) Allow butter to reach room temperature, if you can try to use unsalted butter. Cream sugar and butter together until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time and mix well. Add in flour, powdered milk, baking powder, and corn syrup. Beat each in well. Add juice of half a lemon, salt, vanilla, nutmeg, and mace. Make sure everything is well blended, and pour into a greased loaf pan. Bake at 325 degrees for 45 minutes, checking for doneness by inserting a toothpick and seeing if it comes out clean. You almost want to under bake this. Triple Coconut Pound Cake 2 cups flour 1/4 tsp baking powder 1/4 tsp baking soda 1/2 tsp salt 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter at room temperature 1 cup sugar 2 large eggs, at room temperature 1/2 cup evaporated milk or coconut milk 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 1 tsp coconut extract 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut plus more for garnish for the glaze 1 heaping cup confectioner's sugar milk, cream or coconut milk to thin 1/2 tsp coconut extract Set oven to 350F Whisk together the flours, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Mix the evaporated milk with the extracts, and add alternately to the bowl with the dry ingredients, beginning and ending with the dry. Don't over mix the batter. Stir in the shredded coconut and turn into a greased and floured loaf pan. Smooth out the top and bake for about 55 minutes until risen, golden, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out without wet batter clinging to it. (Moist crumbs are ok) Let the cake cool for 10 minutes before turning out onto a rack. let cool completely before glazing. Make the glaze by mixing the confectioner's sugar and extract with enough liquid to make a spreadable glaze. Top the glazed cake with more shredded coconut.

Seagrass, I live in Central Wisconsin now. Aside from the two plants in great soil, the rest of my rhubarb is growing in super sandy soil and a good bit of shade and has to compete with tree roots. Those plants need supplemental water and fertilizer to keep growing through the summer. Generally cool weather. Some 'summers' we're lucky to hit 90 degrees for a couple of days! So don't give up on your plants. If the plants are still small, you could dig in some bagged cow manure & compost around the perimeter of the plants and/ or toss them a couple handfuls of high nitrogen fertilizer. Manure & compost preferable, of course. Also, some moisture crystals dug in to help retain soil moisture if rains aren't reliable. In Oklahoma, rhubarb is mostly a spring crop because the heat and drought zap it. Here in Wisconsin, we can harvest from the plants all summer. Edited to add... Seagrass, Lindac....would you, pretty please, share the rhubarb custard pie recipe? I've never tasted it and keeping hearing/ reading how wonderful it is. Just a mention...my grandmother made wonderful jams and jellies. My favorite of hers, hands down, was a mulberry rhubarb jam. My second favorite jam is blackberry...the mulberry rhubarb jam reminded me of a very rich tasting blackberry jam.

It depends on how you define "pound cake". Traditional quatre quarts (four quarters) pound cake has equal weights of flour, sugar, eggs and butter. Flavorings can be added, like a spoon of vanilla or orange, or even mixed in little bits and pieces, but it's meant to be plain and fairly dense. You do need to beat it hard to whip air in, and can also separate the eggs to whip the whites with a pinch of the sugar, then fold in the mix of the other parts carefully, for a lighter cake. The only liquid of any quantity in this kind of pound cake comes from the eggs. In some parts of the USA, however, "pound cake" refers to what books usually call "butter cakes", which are plain ol' cakes of the kind one makes for frosted birthday cakes. Those have both eggs and baking powder, but have different proportions. For myself, I prefer to talk about egg rising cakes (which includes sponge and angel) vs. baking powder cakes, because it's less confusing for me. Baking powder cakes often have milk in them, and fewer eggs, and have all kinds of alternative liquids and fats, ranging for oil to yoghurt to applesauce. Because of the chemical leavener, heavier things can be incorporated.
