ReplyDeleteSounds tasty!!! I;='m sure, since it's a Duggar recipe, that it will be delicious!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteSounds good, I'll try it too. Glad Grandma Duggar is willing to share.
ReplyDeleteI have made this and it's a huge hit at our house! Thank-you so much for this recipe
ReplyDeleteThis is very similar to what my family called a Buttermilk sheeth cake. Very rich and reminds me of a brownie.

Thanks for reading!

In a number of episodes, I have seen Michelle and Anna use a mixer or food processor to make cookies and other baked goods. It has a bowl with lid, and a whisk attachment and probably other blades or beaters. Can we get a brand/model name for these appliances?

ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous 9,
Both Michelle and Anna have Bosch mixers that they use to make bread and other baked goods. Sounds like that's what you saw.

What about the icing? ?.. This recipe is awesome for a huge potluck at church. But there isn't any instructions for the icing :(

ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous 11,
We added the icing recipe to the post. Thanks for the suggestion. :)

What's oleo?
DeleteCan you replace the Oleo with butter?
ReplyDeleteDoes this recipe work if you make smaller portions? Like small loaves or cupcakes?
I am always looking for special recipes for our Firefighters baking and often provide a nice cake verses cookies for Christmas Day. We bake for each holiday and for all the houses.
Thank you for the ideas

ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous 13,
Yes, you can replace Oleo with butter. Sorry for the delayed response! We were in Arkansas all weekend for Jill's wedding. :)

When do you add eggs baking powder and vanilla ? Thank you
DeleteHi, not to be too nitpicky, but did anyone notice that step 5 is missing out of the recipe? hopefully it tells you when to add the buttermilk, baking soda, eggs and vanilla!
ReplyDeleteWhen you say a box of powder sugar approx how much? Also can you have the recipe for me?

ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous 18,
Oleo is another term for margarine. You can also substitute butter.

This sounds very much like the cake my mother used to make and I still have her recipe. The first time I remember having it was about 50 years ago.
ReplyDeleteIs the cocoa sweetened, semi, or unsweetened?
ReplyDelete@Kellie Rhodes
ReplyDeleteHi Kellie,
The cocoa is unsweetened. :)
~Lily and Ellie
If butter is replaced do you boil the butter, that doesn't seem like anything I have ever seen before, is this a special secret?
ReplyDeleteYou melt the butter. I have made chocolate frosting off the back of the Hershey cocoa box and it's a similar method. I want to try this one...
ReplyDeleteOleo is a 1960's word for margarine.
ReplyDeleteDon't understand using milk OR butter...they're not the same ingredient and don't have the same consistency. Which is it?
Also imitation vanilla is horrible. Nothing beats real vanilla extract, like from McCormick.
