A delicious Strawberry-Coconut bundt cake featured from Gooseberry Patch!
Our third featured recipe from Gooseberry Patch's newest cookbook: Simple Shortcut Recipes is Strawberry Coconut Pound Cake. You start with a strawberry cake mix, add in some other ingredients, mix them up (in one bowl) and in less than an hour you're done. Not only do you have a delicious cake, but a beautiful one too. I love the vibrant pink color of this cake! In the cookbook it even states that it doubles as a centerpiece since it's so pretty! I love doing reviews for Gooseberry Patch and I'm very grateful that they allow me to do them. So to show my appreciation I like to give away a little gift to go along with the cookbook. Since I love coffee, I decided to buy a pack of coffee pot holders, a coffee tea towel, and a set of coffee dish rags.

My favorite shortcut is to use refrigerated pie crust when making fruit pies. Sometimes in the summer I also use a premade graham cracker crust in place of a baked crust. It cuts down on a lot of prep time and keeps the kitchen cool!
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love using box cake mixes to make desserts that turn out to look like a lot more work than they are :)

ReplyDeleteMy favorite shortcut recipe is using pre made pesto instead of making it yourself for pesto sauce noodles. Also, angel food cake mix and a can of blueberry pie filling for a super easy fast cake!

ReplyDeleteI want to play dress up and eat this cake so sweet. Thanks for sharing it on foodie friday.
ReplyDeleteI love the color! I'll have to look into Gooseberry.
ReplyDeleteFavorite short cut is to use 1 Tbsp of vinegar to regular milk when buttermilk is needed so an extra trip to the store is unnecessary!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this excellent recipe on Southern Sundays! Great post!
ReplyDeleteFavorite shortcut is to bake with a friend - then I only do 1/2 the work but twice the fun!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so good! I love coconut and strawberries. NOt to mention I love anything that is quick and easy. Sometimes a girl just wants to whip something up real quick! I'd love for you to share this at Whatcha Whipped Up Wednesday. Hope to see you there!

ReplyDeleteI love using a good box brownie mix and then adding different goodies, like marshmallows, candy bars, even a botched batch of no bake cookies as a filling for the brownies. Can't wait to try this strawberry cake!

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely gift you are offering to some lucky reader. I always use a little vinegar in milk to make buttermilk. Your strawberry cake looks delicious. Hope you are having a great week and thank you so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday.
ReplyDeleteCome Back Soon!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful cake -- certainly would make a gorgeous centerpiece! The recipe uses my favorite shortcut, too -- use boxed mixes to jumpstart a spectacular dish. Thanks so much for sharing on Busy Monday at A Pinch of Joy. Hope to see you again soon!
ReplyDeleteI have a shortcut for Scalloped potatoes- buy 3 boxes of cheap scalloped mixes, prepare as directed but add 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese, some diced onions and 2 jars of "real" bacon bits. Put all in a casserole dish and throw it in the oven! Everyone will love it won't know the difference.
