This is the first I have heard of coke in a cake. I love Coca cola and have been consuming gallons since forever. But never heard all these stuff you are talking about. So this weekend I went full crazy making this cake and also the peanuts in coke can and well, what ever was left over went straight to my gut. It turned out great. It is our anniversary and as we can not go out to enjoy the day as usual, I stayed in and made this delicious cake. Thanks it was lovely, lovely. Kids were particularly fascinated by the idea of their favorite drink in cake…and they were hovering around me the whole time I was making it. LOL.

They have haunted me for decades as well and I can still taste them when I think about them. I’m saving your recipe so I can try it out this weekend. Thanks for sharing!

Excellent! I substituted microwaved baked potatoes since the skin was not relevant. I also substituted yellow onions, although I think red would have been better but I did not have any on hand. The capers are a nice touch and add a lot to the flavors. My suggestion is to serve them with mustard and prepared horseradish (mild) as a condiment. Will definitely make it again but using red onion.

I’m glad you enjoyed them!! I couldn’t remember what they were called for years then suddenly did and had to recreate them!

I remembered those yummy peanut butter snacks with the crunch and mini chocolate chips, though I couldn’t remember what they were called, until I stumbled into something nostalgic, which led me to this. If I were to make this again, I’d prefer to use milk chocolate chips and melting wafers, but I didn’t see them at the grocery store. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

]]> Comment on Tropical Fusion Baked Beans by Ang https://www.coconutandlime.com/2008/07/tropical-fusion-baked-beans.html#comment-11225 Thu, 04 Jun 2020 18:38:33 +0000 #comment-11225 I am pulling together the ingredients to make these for this weekend. Decided I should comment since I have been making this recipe at least a couple times a year since it was first posted.
The tropical baked beans are always a success and always a big hit when I serve them to guests and friends. Just different enough to be really cool and fun for a summer barbecue, but not so ”wild” that you’re more timid eater friends will freak out on you.

Highly recommended.

Brilliant!!!! I had to substitute a lot, too, since I was missing some of the more esoteric ingredients. Instead of Shaoxing wine I used mirin, instead of Sambal Olek I used Texas Pete’s hot sauce, and instead of chili oil I used regular olive oil with red pepper flakes. It makes kind of a mess, but so good it’s totally worth it! Thanks so much for this recipe!

You are welcome to blend it if you’d like it smoother but it’s always been a vinaigrette with cheese. You can buy a bottle there and it’s virtually identical to this recipe. It’s not a creamy dressing like blue cheese or thousand island.

Rachel, the Bookmaker salad I have been eating for 35 years is creamy – MUCH different from this recipe.
