Thanks Haribo, I'll take your recommendation and do that one then
Now not being a "proper" cook ( I need a recipe for baking, can't just throw it together
) will I need to make any adjustments because I'm using wholemeal flour not white? I wonder if I'll need more liquid, as if I do more than 50% wholemeal in a loaf I usually up the liquid a tad. Any advice gratefully received
:D You never get a second chance to make a first impression.0 -
Its been very quiet shez Haribo tonight, thought you and OH may have been trying out the new mattress

Some hope. :rolleyes: Anyway... It looks like it's built for comfort more than speed.
(the mattress not OH) :cool:
Forgot to congratulate your OH on getting back to work Jackie and his spongey cake. :T
PS.... I'm not an instinctive baker Churchie, just an experimental savoury cook.:D
If you usually up the liquid with wm flour then i'd do that with this too.
I don't us that recipe for the frosting... I do make that bit up and it's basically 1 part butter to 5 parts cream cheese, icing sugar and some lemon zest.

He's on the living room couch not a psychiatrist's couch.:o
Have just discovered that the shepherd's pie leftovers have been cooking on gas mark one since 7pm. :eek: I fancied a piece of it and just found the oven on.... Very MSE as it saves me heating it up in the micro and it's only a teensy bit crunchy.

Thanks Haribo. And that's exactly the type of frosting I want to do :T I'll report back tomorrow ( unless it's a total failure
)
I can do the savoury bit too
With baking I at least need a recipe to ignore :rotfl: You never get a second chance to make a first impression.0
