Ginger-stout layer cake with ermine frosting from Delectable: Sweet & Savory Baking (page 77) by Claudia Fleming

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute vanilla extract for vanilla paste.

    There is a clear error in the amount of flour called for; 140g/1 cup is obviously too little for three 8-inch layers. I made the cake batter with 420g flour and the cake layers turned out well, moist and well-risen, with a fine crumb. Overall, a delicious cake, like the Guinness Stout Ginger Cake in the Last Course that it is based on.
