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

Accompaniments: Caramel frosting; Quick butterscotch (Penuche) icing; Quick brown butter icing

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.

    An adaptable recipe. Can add dried fruit and nuts or omit, use brown or white sugar. The cake is moist and not too heavy, a good snacking cake.
