So I used my potato flake starter in this recipe. Decreased milk to 1/2 cup and increased flour by a 1/2 cup. Used 3/4 c honey instead of sugar, and used sugar free pudding and chocolate chips. Made cupcakes instead of bread and they turned out pretty good! Next time I’ll use two packages of sugar free pudding. The cupcakes are light and fluffy. I’ll freeze some for later. This will be a great snack when I’m craving something sweet.

I’ve made this before and it is so yummy! I’m trying the potato flake starter and want to try using it in this recipe. Has anyone tried doing it that way? If I understand your potato flake 101 I’d need to decrease the liquid by half cup and increase the flour by half cup?
Thanks for any help and I’ll let you know how it turns out. I’ll be substituting sugar as well🤞
Melody says
Can I substitute butter for the oil in recipes and whole wheat flour for all purpose? Thank you
Rebekah says
Hi Melody! Yes, butter should work, as well! The end result will be a little different but it should work fine. Here’s a great post about substituting with wheat flour, because it is a little more finicky: https://www.friendshipbreadkitchen.com/faq-substitute-bake-whole-wheat-flour-for-all-purpose-white-flour/
Kendra J Brownsberger says
Can I half the oil and put in apple sauce for the other half like the basic recipe??
Darien Gee says
Yes, just know that the end result will be a little different but it should work!

Made this triple chocolate bread recipe and love it. our great-granddaughter (20 months) loves it too, I think she ate most of my piece, will make again
Shirley Orwoll says
I’ve tried several of your recipes using the friendship starter. Everyone loved them—I tried the pumpkin cranberry oil-free and just finished the chocolate zucchini bread. Added semi-sweet mini chips, probably should have added cocoa powder. I was wondering if you could use sugar blend for the starter to cut down on the sugar. With the starter and making bread, you go through 4 cups of sugar. I made the chocolate with sugar-free instant pudding using chocolate fudge and it turned out great.
Darien Gee says
You could reduce or swap the sugar in the recipe, and you can reduce the sugar in the starter, but do not use sugar alternatives in the starter — they won’t interact properly with the yeast. Hope this helps, and so glad you enjoyed the recipes, Shirley!

I made this recipe yesterday. I made one batch following the recipe exactly and it was delicious. For the remaining batches I tweaked it and doubled the Coco’ (4 heaping teaspoons) and added cocoa to the sugar in the pan. I used a large box of chocolate fudge pudding. What I ended up with was basically loaf form brownies. Absolutely fantastic!
Wanda Montgomery says
This is my fave Amish bread recipe. So moist and chocolatey it almost feels sinful.

I love this cake!!! It is one of our favorites. I make and share at our work coffee time and get rave reviews. I also add espresso powder to the cake batter AND to the chocolate frosting. I call it Monday Morning Cake— it’s an “eye-opener”!!! 🙂
Althea says
This is our favorite. I bake it in a Bundt pan. It’s so decadent and chocolaty. I use dark chocolate chips and Hershey’s dark chocolate cocoa powder, and Hershey’s special dark chocolate pudding. This is to die for DELICIOUS!!!!!!
Oh my…I think I need to bake one tonight
Sharon Schmitt-Matzen says
Baking a Bundt Chocolate Friendship Cake sounds wonderful. How long did you bake it and at what temperature??

Oh wow, that looks delicious!! I love Amish bread. They used to have a stand at our local flea market, but they left about a year ago. I miss their cookies and breads! I’m a horrible cook, but I’m going to try this anyway!
