That cake Rebecca looks so good. Since I gave up dairy I don't eat so many desserts any more and when I do, I prefer them less sweet now but I will try making a Me friendly version of this. Thanks for sharing x
Hi Melissa! This is one of the easiest cakes to make dairy free. Just use all coconut oil instead of half butter and half coconut oil, and any kind of plant based milk. Even with the orange syrup, the cake is not very sweet, which I love, and it sounds like you will too. And also, I am formally adopting the phrase "Me friendly". :-)
Rebecca, thank you so very much sharing my writing on Chicago and supporting immigrants 💙 It means a lot. Looking forward to exploring these delicious treats!
Omg those cinnamon biscuits! Also omg: orange drizzle cake! I love anything citrus 🍊 Thank you for the shoutout and yes, more mocktail recipes are coming! 💞
So smart! I love cinnamon rolls but sometimes don't have the time or patience to make them. Cinnamon biscuits! Why didn't I think of that? Plus so many different ways to frost them (or not) cream cheese, maple vanilla frosting, brown butter frosting, whipped honey drizzle.
Lots of canned butter aboard, just not the bricks I prefer to use (because it's easier to measure lol). There's excellent NZ butter available most places; I'm just out of the non-canned stuff currently.
Thank you friend! I feel so very fortunate to have found Sarah and to get to work with her on so many fun projects. But honestly, I feel so rich in that area since coming to substack... I am surrounded by talented people generously sharing their work with the world. It's overwhelmingly wonderful.

Great tip Rebecca. And you are welcome to use the phrase. :-)x

Thank you for sharing your experience. The country needs to know what's happening from real people and their real experiences.

If there's citrus of any kind in it, I'll love it. Can't wait for the rest of your mocktail series!

Dang, now I'm hungry.
The first day I made these, I was like, why have I never done this before??? Brown butter frosting would be SO good on these.
Thanks for sharing my Ode to the Midwest, Rebecca! My mouth was watering as I read through the rest of the post! 😍😍😍
Having just spent the summer on the coast of Lake Michigan, your post completely captivated me. Your work is excellent and so inspiring!
Wow, thank you so much, Rebecca! ❤️
First of all, YUM. Now I want to make cinnamon biscuits. On the list for next time we can get to a store - butter!
And I love the recommendations to new Substacks. Thanks!
How long has it been since you've had butter?

Yum to every recipe, but those cinnamon biscuits?!! 🤤
I’m don’t know why I’d never tried that before! Cinnamon toast and cinnamon bread and cinnamon rolls are some of my favorite things.
Same! 😊
Ooooh I love this new series and your photos in this post are ga-ga-gorgeous! Also love Sarah’s moving art on the recs page ❤️

I agree 🥰🥰🥰
