:hello:
I've had a few :beer: watching the rugby (say nowt :mad: ), and I was going to make a chocolate yoghurt cake. I cracked 3 very old eggs to see if they were dead yet, and then realised I haven't got any yoghurt (well, only strawberry
) and I'm much too drunk to drive to the shops.
Can someone give me a cake recipe with 3 (or 4, or 5) eggs in please, so they don't get wasted? I haven't got much in, so something simple would be best.
Ta very much.

Edit: Scottish recipes not welcome, if it's all the same to you. :mad:
Extra edit: I've got no butter either, only oil.

If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

Such a thing exists? :eek:
Yes please little chicken, the recipe would be handy! If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.0 -
OOoo another one for the index.
You can make any cake with three eggs.
Just weigh the eggs and add equal amounts of sugar, SR flour and butter for a victoria sponge.£2 Coins Savings Club 2012 is £4

Victoria sponge. Weigh the eggs (I used 3 earlier, and it was 200g) then add the same quantity of:
Self Raising Flour
Caster sugar (Granulated will do)
Margarine/Butter
add a tiny bit of baking powder.
add some vanilla essence if you're feeling posh and have got some.
Alternatively, leave out a little bit of flour and add some cocoa powder for choc cake.
Beat it all up in a bowl and bake at 180 for 15-20 mins.
Turned mine into a lemon curd sponge earlier.

I've always done 3 eggs & 6 oz each of SR flour, butter/marg & sugar. Or 2 eggs & 4 of each. Or 4 eggs & 8 of each. You get the idea... lol!
