    Yum yum. That sounds really easy! There’s a lot of flour, sugar and butter in this! I would normally use half these ingredients. What size tin did you use? Have you got a photo?

      Georgie – I’m going to confess summat here, in order to get the post out – I’ve missed out a crucial line – This Recipe makes THREE Cakes (oops!) It was copied from my notebook I take for my on/off cooking lesson – I use a Round 12″ Tin but I suppose you could use a square one…
