So much cake....

Have had to go into kitchen and now sponge baking away. Showed SB how to do this as it's his favourite. Buttercream and jam to fill once it's cooled.

Twinks Hobnobs next. May be my job first thing tomorrow :j

Ive made them with honey instead, I used that as its all I had. Can't comment if they taste better with golden syrup as not made any using that yet, but they were still very nice using honey

8oz porridge oats
8oz margarine
1tbsp golden syrup
1tbsp hot water

mix flour, oats and sugar, melt marg, syrup and water in a pan stir in bic soda and add to dry mix, mix well, make smallish balls and put on greased tray and flatten slightly with a fork, 180oc for 15 mins, cool on the tray, you just want them golden in oven not brown
