803 | Cinnamon Teacake I've had this recipe for years...it's one of those old favourites ya just keep going back to..60gms butter, softened Grease a 20cm sandwich pan, cover base with paper, grease paper. Cream butter & vanilla essence in a small bowl with electric mixer until light & fluffy, add castor sugar, blend for about 10 minutes or until mixture is pale & creamy.

807 | Here is a Julie Le Clerc recipe that is a fave of mine. White choc, coconut and peach friands.Heat oven to 180deg, grease muffin pans. Melt 100g butter and 100g white choc melts together. Place Ina mixing bowl with 1 cup dessicated coconut, 1 and a half cups icing sugar, half cup plain flour, 6 egg whites, 1 tsp vanilla essence. Stir until just combined. spoon into pans, top each with a couple of drained canned peach slices. Bake for 25 mins. Stand for 5 mins before turning onto a cooling rack. Makes 10. +++ I actually make mine in mini muffin pans and chop the peach slices up, cos they are very decadent!+++ ksr - 2005-07-24 13:59:00 |

812 | I know this isn't what your after Apricot & giner Slice...250gms pkt gingernut biscuits whiskey13 - 2005-07-25 20:15:00 |
813 | Oops..it's supposed to be... Apricot & Ginger Slice whiskey13 - 2005-07-25 20:19:00 |
814 | KSR - don't you hate it when people are that nasty that they won't share a recipe with you. If someone asks me for a recipe, I am flattered they like my baking and happily share it. I have gotten some of my tastiest recipes from asking friends for theirs. What about making the Chelsea packet apricot slice and add some coconut into the base mixture. Ice with passionfruit icing yum! a_kiwi_grl - 2005-07-26 12:33:00 |
815 | CHINAMAN CHEWS (made them for coffee grp & they all wanted the recipe!) a_kiwi_grl - 2005-07-26 12:38:00 |
816 | Hey Lisa..... that sounds like an awesome idea. I will be one that will be eternally grateful!! Cant wait!! chch_gal - 2005-07-26 13:25:00 |
817 | Thanks kiwi girl Yeah I thought it was weird - If we moved in the same circles and it was world famous I would get it. But we don't - and my Mum has a lot of trouble with certain foods cos of a wonky liver and she ate this with no probs. Oh well! People have been kind enuf to give loads of recipes and it is all good kudos to them:) ksr - 2005-07-26 19:22:00 |

820 | r u kidding me? ?? ksr - 2005-07-26 20:12:00 |
821 | ksr, I've found an Alison Holst slice recipe called Coconut Slice and I'm wondering if the Apricot Slice is a modified version of it. AH's pastry base recipe doesn't fit your description (it's just a basic flour, butter and water one), but the filling is raspberry jam and currants or sultanas (apricot jam and dried apricots perhaps??) and the topping is butter, sugar, vanilla, eggs and coconut. 245sam - 2005-07-26 20:56:00 |
822 | yum sounds good ksr - 2005-07-26 21:01:00 |
823 | ksr ..............................- 245sam - 2005-07-26 21:08:00 |
824 | i'd love it pls but no stress - I will not have time to bake until weekend:) Cheers ksr - 2005-07-26 21:25:00 |
825 | ksr, here 'tis......................- 245sam - 2005-07-26 22:00:00 |
826 | Oops, missed the last bit off - Serve warm, or cool in the tin before cutting into smaller pieces for a slice. Here's an alternative base (maybe) for the Coconut Slice???? I haven’t made the Coconut Slice but I have made a caramel slice using this base:- 3 weetbix, 1 cup each of flour and coconut, 3/4 cup sugar, 1 tsp baking powder, 125g melted butter. I have modified this recipe to exclude coconut by using the same quantity of rolled oats and chopping them in the food processor. Perhaps this would be like the Apricot Slice base if you used 1/2 cup each of coconut and rolled oats or rolled oats instead of weetbix.– Where’s there’s a will I’m sure you’ll find a way to overcome the mean-ness of the one who wouldn’t share ‘her’ recipe. Good luck. 245sam - 2005-07-26 22:09:00 |
827 | wow! Thanks for that! Sounds like a good idea... I will try at the weekend and let you know, many thanks:) ksr - 2005-07-26 22:27:00 |

832 | Jam Buns A friend made these and I had to have the recipe and now I'll share it here. It's so scrummy! 115g butter Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs and beat, then add flour and baking powder. Roll into balls and press fingerholes into the middle of each ball. Place some jam, a marshmallow or choc button into finger hole. Bake 180 for 15 mins. cautis - 2005-07-28 19:01:00 |
833 | Baking Paper On the budget advice thread both Julie 28 and myself have said that we use baking paper more than once and I thought it worth a mention here. Took me a year of using it to think of doing this! Tried BREAD CASES for first time-I think they must have been in their heyday when you could get the very thin sandwich bread-green wrapper-because mine are too thick. Am defrosting a slice of sand. and one of toast-will roll them thin and see if that is better. marywea - 2005-07-31 11:03:00 |
834 | a_kiwi_grl decided to try your recipe but ... how long do you cook it for ??? No mention of that in the recipe !! rwatchorn - 2005-07-31 13:07:00 |
835 | thanks kob there have sure been so great recipes along the way and its always nice to find the thread still here. Im really struggling with baking at the moment (morning sickness) but still "trying" to keep the tins full !! Will add a couple of new recipes shortly. rwatchorn - 2005-07-31 13:10:00 |

837 | No bake cookies My kids love making (& eating !) these easy biscuits ..... 2 cups sugar, 3 tab cocoa, 1/2 cup milk, 115g butter, 1/2 tsp vanilla, 2 tab p/butter, 3 cups rolled oats. Heat together sugar, cocoa, milk and butter. Boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat and add vanilla, peanut butter and oats. Mix well. Drop spoonfuls onto waxed paper, allow to cool until firm. rwatchorn - 2005-07-31 13:20:00 |
838 | LEMONADE SCONES (dont know if this has been done) 3 cups self raising flour * 1 cup lemonade * 1 cup cream. Mix together real quick and dollop spoonfulls onto cold tray - bake in 220C oven for 10-12 mins. Just made them now - sooo good! jo-ann1 - 2005-07-31 14:24:00 |
839 | Baking paper... Found it really easy when you make slices, biscuits etc that need to be rolled out. Just put the mix between 2 pieces of baking paper and roll out. No floury bench yahoo!!!! mumstu - 2005-07-31 15:23:00 |

849 | Jam Buns & Donut Muffins went down well here ! My kids ate both and that is always a good sign. I got lots of comments on the muffins, they have a "cafe style" taste to them so Im told. Thanks for sharing those recipes. rwatchorn - 2005-08-07 19:33:00 |
850 | sugar I halve the sugar in most recipes and no-one ever complains. Scarey to see the likes of 2 CUPS in some recipes !!!!!!! rwatchorn - 2005-08-07 19:36:00 |
