As long as the fractions balance each other out, the recipe stays the same, right?

    “irregardless” says enough.

      The lack of verbs in the same sentence underscores the point.

        I wonder how many cobwebs surround their keyboard’s comma key.

      While I agree, it’s technically been in the dictionary since 1934:

    The fact that two people found this “helpful.” Maybe for judging Moureen’s capacity for general good sense.

    Carrots have a lot of moisture, which you did not account for.

      They also didn’t account for their own idiocy

    Well there’s the problem. You subtracted half a cup of 4 ingredients (coconut, pecans, pineapple, raisins), thus -2 cups total. But then you only put one extra cup of carrots instead of 2 extra cups.

      That’s it. The cake texture is inside the missing cup!

        I bet they just added the carrots all together instead of in half cup increments for each replaced ingredient individually. You might be able to fool a cake on the content of ingredients you add, but never on the number of steps. Pretty sure I’ve read that in a cookbook somewhere.

    “try again?” They didn’t try a first time. Most cooking allows for a bit of fuckery and experimentation, but baking is like building a model, skipping steps and kit bashing are only for truly advanced builders.
