These streamlined
recipes for time-honored cakes are sure to become your new standbys.
Quick Coconut-Pineapple Cake is a two-layer interpretation of a Southern
Living Holiday Recipe Contest winner, Nanny's Famous Coconut-Pineapple
Cake from Erma Jean Reese of Warrenton, Georgia. Pineapple preserves and
lemon curd from the supermarket replace the cooked filling, while
buttermilk lends homemade taste to the white cake mix.
Homemade
Coconut-Pecan Filling covers an easy 13- x 9-inch German Chocolate Cake
that's dressed up with a stir-in of tangy sour cream. This topping is so
much tastier than all of the convenience products we tested; we didn't
need to change a thing. You will save time, though, with the cake mix.
Purchase ice cream and an angel food cake to create the make-ahead
No-Bake Ice-Cream Angel Food Cake adapted from The Southern Living
Cookbook. We like chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry ice cream in ours,
but choose flavors to suit your family's tastes.
