Posted by pastry_queen90 Welsh cakes (Welsh: picau ar y maen, pice bach, cacen gri or teisen radell) are traditional Welsh snacks. The cakes are also known as bakestones within Wales because they are traditionally cooked on a bakestone (Welsh: maen), a cast iron griddle about 1.5 cm or more thick which is placed on the fire or cooker; on rare occasions, people may refer to them as griddle scones. Welsh cakes are made from flour, sultanas, raisins, and/or currants, and may also include such spices as cinnamon and nutmeg. They are roughly circular, a couple of inches... read more

Posted by JJoni This is an unusual sugar cookie recipe because you cut the butter into the flour similar to pie crust and then add the wet ingredients. It also calls for adding "sweet milk", which years ago was referring to any type of milk, other than buttermilk. When I was a child standing on a chair next to my mother, this is the recipe we would use to make rolled out cookies. It yields a light sumptuous sugar cookie with a hint of nutmeg flavor.

Posted by caymancake This is a small recipe as it was originally based on a cupcake recipe I cam across. It bakes into a cake very nicely – and doubles and triples easily. One batch will yield a tall 6” cake, a short 8” cake or 12-15 cupcakes. It always gets rave reviews though! Some useful tips: - if you are planning to use coconut buttercream, omit the use of the coconut milk/coconut extract. - this cake pairs really well with a vanilla or rum buttercream and makes a stunning dessert when you add shredded coconut as a garnish. ENJOY!! Ingredients:... read more
