B. Dylan Hollis Reveals His Least Favorite Dessert

[@Promatim]

Dylan is one of those "this isn't even my final form" entertainers. His muppet-style short content is so funny and quotable. But then... you catch him in a long form video, or in an interview, and his natural voice is just butter. One of the few people where you hang on his every word.

[@Sitethief]

Agreed!

[@felicadawn62]

No one even brought up just how hilarious he is on his vids. That's what always brought me back to his shorts. Edit:...ok, I had to listen to the end. So sorry. Yes, they bring it up. Thank you, guys. Talented, smart, funny. Now can we see and hear you play? I would really love that.

[@jokerisback711]

[@brookechang4942]

Seeing Dylan scream "INCORRECT!" when he made the jellied meatloaf is still one of my favourite moments from his videos. 🤣What an amazing interview!

by far the best interview with Dylan I've seen thus far. You gave him actual time to answer and got to banter with him. Truly a professional job there!

The look of pure joy on Dylan's face when Trevor passed over the wacky cake will forever be one of my favorite moments in all of ever. ❤

[@031Productions]

It's just so pure

[@Andapanda4321]

First off...I adore Dylan and his humor. I'm always looking forward to seeing a new video. The Wacky Cake they are eating is a recipe that my family has made for years. I grew up with it and my Dad made it for my Mom's 16th birthday in 1964. It's an awesome recipe... especially with a better frosting.

[@susanneboling5552]

The book is just great!

[@Real_McPhee]

How can you not love this guy?!?! Just watching him interact with Trevor and the crew, shows how infectious his personality can be. He’s genuine, enthusiastic, and really very kind. A beautiful bright spot mixed in with all the negativity on social media

[@FlusteredBushStudios]

[@David-sc2ir]

Who doesn't just love this guy! His personality, his look, his style, his humor, his charisma! Dylan just makes me smile and feel good about life. I'm going to buy his book right now and I hope he finds the greatest success in life. The world needs more Dylan's!

[@JanStrojil]

Exactly! I bought two copies and I can’t wait for it to arrive! Dylan is explosively funny but it’s his longer videos and these interviews that show how much thought and brain is behind the farce. Love him!

[@ConstantCompanion]

What's fun about Dylan's recipes is, I was a teenager in the late 70s, learning how to cook in the early 80s. A lot of the recipes he does were some of my first things. I mean. I didn't even know why not wise. Imagine my disappointment when I found out it was just scrambled eggs. I cut my teeth on things like wacky cake. It was The Depression recipes any kid could make easily and have it turn out. I had a friend who love to make Manny's cake and always brought it down lunch. She would share. Many of the things that he laughs over, I think, you need to try before you say too much. Because that stuff's good. I have a quiche recipe out of the late 70s early 80s? It has a secret ingredient. If you put it in today's recipes, people would balk like Dylan does. But the truth is? We knew stuff. We really did.

[@ayumichan2445]

I can personally recommend the Wacky Cake recipe. I grew up with it as Cockeyed Cake (no idea where the name came from. Maybe because you look confused at the ingredients list because its missing eggs milk and butter in a cake and you’re confused) it is a Very Very good chocolate cake. Rich moist and super easy. Definitely worth making!

[@PuffKitty]

Wacky Cake is the first thing I learned to bake in the early 60s as a kid. I guess my mother trusted me to make it since if I screwed up it didn't waste a lot of ingredients 😋 I remember it as being very moist!

My cousin's wacky cake was a spice cake (3 wells for the liquids) with a broiled coconut frosting. Lost the recipe card 😑

I've made wacky cake for 30 years, except instead of 2 cups of cold water I use 2 cups of cold coffee, it enhances the chocolate taste, it's absolutely amazing 😋

I've got my copy of Dylan's book. Love it. Also love Dylan's sense of humor. I grew up being taught to cook and bake by my 94 year old grandmother in the 1970's. She taught by the pinch of this, some of that, bunch of the other thing and cook it until it's done method. I still use those techniques today. So instructions from cook books that use those measurements are easy for me to do.
