sultana cake This recipe requires you to boil 500gm sultanas for about 10 minutes, strain then add 250gm butter (cut into cubes) Put lid back on saucepan and leave to the side to melt. In the meantime beat three eggs and 1 1/2 cups sugar together until light and creamy. Add melted butter and sultana mix, about 1/2 tsp lemon or orange essence plus 1/2 tsp vanilla essence, then stir in 2 1/2 cups flour that has been sifted with a heaped tsp of baking powder. Line your cake tin with foil taking care to square the corners, add the mixture and bake at 170 for about an hour. Check with skewer and adjust your time accordingly. Cool in the tin once cooked. I have made this recipe for years (it comes from my mum's old Country Women's Institute book)

Boiled together Fruit Cake This is the easiest, yummiest fruit cake, I always have to take one to Oz when visiting our son!
Boil together 1kg mixed fruit, 1Tblsp golden syrup, 2 cups water, 2 cups brown sugar, 1tsp mixed spice. Boil approx 5 mins and I pour into my large tupperware bowl and add 2 tsp baking soda. Mix well and leave to cool. (Often overnight). Then mix in 4 cups flour, 1 tsp baking powder, 2 beaten eggs, 1 tsp each lemon, almond, vanilla essence. Mix well. Bake 31/2- 4 hours approx, 150oC.
This has been 2 Wedding Cakes for family. Economical and tasty.

Tipsy Cake Does anyone have a recipe for Tipsy cake. It is two layers of sponge cake with another layer in the middle with jam and rum essence, I think. It then has an icing on top.

Layered Passionfruit torte 6 Eggs separated, ¾ cup icing sugar, ½ cup sugar, ½ teaspoon Vanilla essence, ½ cup cornflour, 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder and ¼ cup of plain flour. FILLING:- 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon gelatine, pulp of 10 passionfruit, 500g cream cheese, 1 ½ cups sifted icing sugar, ¾ cup cream lightly whipped, ½ cup of cream extra whipped to stiff peaks, pulp of 2 passionfruit extra, ¼ cup roasted almonds or pistachios chopped. Preheat the oven to 180c. Lightly greased two shallow 23cm round cake tins and line the bases with baking paper. Place the egg whites in a large dry mixing bowl beat with electric beaters until stiff peaks form. Add the sugar gradually beating until all the sugar has dissolved and mixture is thick and glossy. Fold in the yolks and vanilla essence. Sift dry ingredients into the mixture and gently fold in until smooth. Spoon mixture evenly into the prepared tins.

Cont.... Bake for 20 minutes or until the cakes shrink away from the sides of tins. Leave the cakes in the tins for 5 minutes before turning out onto wire racks to cool completely. To make the filling, combine the juice, gelatine and ½ cup of water in a small mixing bowl. Heat half of the passionfruit pulp in a small saucepan until it boils. Add the gelatine mixture and stir over medium heat until dissolved. Strain the mixture through a sieve and add to remaining passionfruit pulp. Leave to cool slightly. Beat the cream cheese and sugar with electric beaters until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add the passionfruit mixture. Fold in the lightly whipped cream.

Cont...Final bit.. To assemble the cake, cut each cake in half horizontally with a serrated knife. Place one layer on a serving plate and spread with one-fifth of filling, continue layering leaving enough filling to spread evenly over the top and side of the cake. Place extra whipped cream in a piping bag and pipe rosettes on top of the cake. Spread extra passionfruit pulp over top. Sprinkle the nuts over the rosettes. Refrigerate for several hours before serving. One can assemble cake 3 days prior but add the rosettes and pulp before serving. Hmm just needed to add to this great thread..

Chocolate Mud Cake..A very nice version 250g unsalted butter, 250g dark chocolate chopped, 2 tablespoons instant coffee powder, 150g self-raising flour, 150g plain flour, ½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda, ½ cup cocoa powder, 2 ¼ cups castor sugar, 4 eggs lightly beaten, 2 tablespoons oil, ½ cup of buttermilk. ICING:- 150g unsalted butter and 150g dark chocolate chopped. Preheat the oven to 160c. lightly grease a deep 22cm round cake tin and line with baking paper making sure the paper around the side extends at least 5cm above the top edge. Put the butter, chocolate and coffee in a saucepan with ¾ cup hot water and stir over low heat until smooth, remove from the heat. Sift the flours, soda, and cocoa into a large mixing bowl. Stir in the sugar and make a well in the centre. Place the eggs, oil and buttermilk in a separate mixing bowl and mix until combined.

valentino - 2007-05-18 17:01:00

Cont... final bit.. Pour into the dry ingredients and mix together with a whisk. Gradually add the chocolate mixture whisking well after each addition. Pour the mixture ( it will be quite wet) into the tin and bake for 1 ¾ hours. Test the centre with a skewer, the skewer may be slightly wetter than normal. Remove the cake from the oven. If the top looks raw, bake for another 5 – 10 minutes then remove from oven. Leave it in the tin until completely cold, then turn out and wrap in plastic wrap. For the icing, combine the butter and chocolate in a saucepan and stir over low heat until the butter and chocolate are melted. Remove and cool slightly. Pour over the cake and allow it to run down the side. If one uses a hollow centre cake tin, be wary that baking times are less perhaps by 20% but is more spectacular with the choc running inside as well. Cheers.

Flourless Chocolate Cake 500g Good quality dark chocolate chopped, 6 eggs, 2 tblsp Frangelico or brandy, 1 ½ cups ground hazelnuts, 1 cup cream whipped, icing sugar to dust, thick cream to serve ( optional). Preheat the oven to slow 150c. Grease a deep 20cm round cake tin and line the base with baking paper. Half-fill a saucepan with water and bring to the boil. Remove from the heat and sit the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over the pan making sure it is not touching the water, stir occasionally until melted. Put the eggs in a large heatproof bowl and add the Frangelico or brandy. Place the bowl over a pan of just simmering water on low heat making sure the bowl does not touch the water.

Cont... final bit Beat the mixture with electric beaters on high speed for 7 minutes or until light and foamy. Remove from the heat. Using a metal spoon quickly and lightly fold the chocolate and nuts into the egg mixture until just combined. Fold in the cream and pour into the cake tin. Place the tin in a shallow roasting tin. Pour enough hot water into the roasting tin to come up half-way up the side of the cake tin. Bake for 1 hour or until just set. Remove from the roasting tin and cool to room temperature. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. Invert the cake onto a plate and remove the baking paper. Cut into slices, dust lightly with icing sugar and serve with thick cream.
