Friendship Bread has Crowds Fleeing for Safety
It all started with a long time friend innocently passing on a starter bag of Amish Friendship Bread/Cake to me. I followed the instructions: squish, squish, squish, add flour, add milk, add sugar, squish, squish, squish and then add more ingredients. The end result is I’m left with four bags of goo to pass on to my dear friends along with enough goo to make two pans of cake for my family. The bread does end up being good but the ten days of thought and mixing has everyone running.
It seems, once you make it that first time, you’re not as excited about the process or end result. So what do I do with these unwanted starters? Well, I just put them into the freezer to wait. I’m thinking about trying to make mini-cakes, without waiting the full ten days. It would be an experiment and what could be more fun than that?
