I just baked 3 loaves of pumpkin chocolate quick breads and 5 rum pound cakes.....Ask me anything

All were from scratch. I used 16 eggs, 15 cups of sugar, 3 lbs. of butter, 12 cups of flour and probably about 2 cups of rum (the most important ingredient.

I have 3 brothers and they each for Christmas get one pumpkin/chocolate bread and a pound cake. One pound cake stays at my house and a good friend gets the last pound cake along with a banana bread I made her yesterday. My friend's is a late Hanukkah gift.

5. Here it is

I added a little over a cup of nestles chocolate chips to it. This recipe makes 3 loaves. Nice size loaves too. I ended up using stock pot to mix everything in.
