This a great little retro recipe which can usually be knocked up with ingredients you already have in your store cupboard. Sweet, sticky and mighty good…You have to give this one a go. Recipe from The Pleasures of the Table: Rediscovering Theodora Fitzgibbon.
Continental sponge flan cases are usually served filled with cream and fruit but here they’re transformed into the layers of a gateau. Any 20cm cake can be used in the same way. The marshmallow can also be made on its own. Leave it to set in a lined 18cm square tin, then cut into cubes and toss in icing sugar. (Recipe from Sharon Hearne Smith’s, No Bake Baking available on amazon.)
Scones are so quintessentially Irish and are something nearly everyone has a recipe for, whether it belongs to you, your mother or was even passed down from your grandmother. This recipe has a sweet twist with the use of some lovely Irish honey alongside the traditional ingredients. The addition of this great Irish product gives the scones a lovely heady flavour and really adds that special something to a classic recipe.
