Welsh Cakes
Also known as bakestones.
Ingredients:
1lb self rising flour.
8oz butter
8oz granulated sugar, and a small amount of caster sugar to serve
8oz currants
Teaspoon of mixed spice
Half teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
Small amount of milk
Cut the butter into the flour until crumbly; add the rest of the dry
ingredients. Mix thoroughly, and then add the eggs one at a time. Add the milk
slowly while mixing, to get the right consistency. The mix should not be too
sticky as it is difficult to roll.
Roll out on floured surface to just a little less than a quarter of an inch; cut
into rounds about 2" across. Cook on a griddle or hot plate and turn once when
brown. Dust with a little caster sugar to serve
