Just made Madeira Loaves from Book 1 .
Had nothing for himselves lunch this morning.
I got 3 X l lb loaf tin sizes out of that recipe.
Lovely cheap easy to make recipes in each Book.
Ist cake plain Madeira.
I added a few Cherries & Sultanas to the rest of the mix. Yummy.
Remember i told ye before that if ye cover this type of cake with another tin that it makes them rise more and make them much lighter.
Well it does.
Oh my God.
Its divine.
Please try this recipe.
Look up page 33 in Book 1.
Enjoy.
