How long do you bake it? 70minutes?
i just want to ask… can i add a coffee powder to this recipe?… if yes.. what is the measurement
Questions please. Would ten inch Bundt pan work? I’ve been searching and searching for this recipe. Lost an old 70s recipe. Have you ever used pecans? Thanks.
A Bundt pan would work fine, I have not added pecans but it does sound like a lovely addition!
