Cake with 3 eggs?

mrbadexample

: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.

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.

littleredhen

small carton of yoghurt
2 cartons caster sugar (i use 1 & 1/2 only)
2 cartons of s.r flour
5 oz melted marg (or use veg oil)
2 eggs beaten

melt marg or put oil in a bowl, add rest of ingredients and mix
put in 2 x 1lb loaf tins - i use one big loaf tin - greased and lined
cook 180/190 degrees c for approx 40 mins

delicious

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 noticed the only time you visit here now is when your hungry.

No butter eh.......:think:

Squiggly_Diddly

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!

In fact I've just had the 3 egg quantity one with a tin of peaches underneath - eaten hot with evaporated milk Yummy peach upside down cake....

Have you got flour and caster sugar? You can make a whisked sponge with 3 eggs, 3 ounces plain flour and 3 ounces caster sugar... let me know if you need a recipe...!
