Well I think we should all sit down and have a cup of tea, and some biscuits, nice ones mind you. Oh and some cake would be nice as well,mmmmmmmmmmmmm Lovely.
 
Welsh cake anyone, or would you prefer a biscuit ?

| Sure, why not? I'll take a cup of Irish breakfast, plain and strong, and some of that Welsh cake. Looks good. Does the cake have dates or figs in it? |

Welsh Cakes recipe
1 pound of Flour
6 ounces of Sugar
3 ounces of lard and 3 ounces of Butter
1/2 a teaspoon of raising powder
a pinch of salt
1 large egg
a generous handful of dried fruit ( optional)
milk to mix
Rub the fat into the flour until it's like fine breadcrumbs. Mix in all the other dry ingredients. Beat the egg well, add gradually to the mixture. Add the milk until you have a stiff, manageable dough. Knead well. Turn out onto a floured board and roll out to 1/2 an inch thickness. Cut into rounds about 2 inches across. Cook on a well greased plate (a thick frying pan will do if you don't have a bakestone) over a low heat until brown on both sides.
Some people sprinkle them with sugar or let them get cold and have them with salted butter, Some people leave out the fruit altogether,cut them across the middle and spread them with jam ( jello).It's very much a personal thing that you can make to your own taste

Thanks, Brit! That looks like a tastey recipe.  When I try it sometime, I'll make it with veg. shortening instead of lard. Once on the lips always on the hips!  |
