Re: bakin cakes

Re: bakin cakes
 

They Are Like A Very Large Choreley Cake Tinks..loads Of Currants Or Raisins,,

Re: bakin cakes
 

Ahhh and you put butter on them like scones?

Re: bakin cakes
 

Yep,,,they are absolutely yummy when straight from the oven,,,
after the war it was like having a feast,,,

Re: bakin cakes
 

My mum used to make plate-sized Chorley cakes, delicious cut up straight from the oven and buttered on the top. I sometimes use her parkin recipe too, mmmmmm!, and her egg custards were to die for.

(Poor Mancie, is all this cake getting up your nose?) :p

Re: bakin cakes
 

oooh yes please,,sticky parkin....yum

Re: bakin cakes
 

This is so good that inadvertently Mancie has indeed started a baking thread.:)


You'll have to let him lick the bowl out, if he's a good little soldier.;)

Re: bakin cakes
 

The end product might be enough to cheer the grumpy so ans so up. :p :D

Re: bakin cakes
 

If he's not careful he'll get some positive karma for it!

As for licking the bowl, tell him to flush it, like every-one else!

I had never heard ov sad cakes till we came to accy. My Nan used to bake em but she called em corren cakes.
She would roll them out on the door of the kitchenett thing and bake them on greased paper.
She made fantastic egg custards at the same time.
Mmm makes my mouth water just thinking about them. The shop down the road sold my favorite cakes. They were called bath buns but I havn't seen them about for years.
