GOLDEN SYRUP BISCUITS

Steps:

• Turn your oven up to 150°C (gas mark 2) and grease a baking tray ready to put the biscuits on. Place to one side.
• Place the butter and syrup into a saucepan and heat into a liquid then leave to cool in a safe place.
• Once reasonably cool, pour into a glass bowl and add the raising flour, vanilla essence and baking soda.
• Place in the fridge for at least an hour to become thicker then take out. Once taken out, sprinkle some plain flour over a flat surface.
• Check that the mixture is thick enough to roll, if not, add some plain flour.
• Take the mixture out and roll around and knead slightly with fists to stop it sticking, then roll out to about 3 to 5 mm thick and cut into biscuit shapes.
• Place the biscuits on the greased tin and bake for about twenty minutes. Take out at the twenty minute mark and check its cooking well, then cook for another ten minutes , supervising the cooking.
• Once golden brown, take the biscuits out and cool in the tray until cool enough to place onto a cooling rack until cold, then eat or store in a sealed box. Yum!!!

GOLDEN SYRUP CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 140C/fan (or 160/C - gas mark 3). Grease the tin and line the base with baking paper leaving a little to cover the bottom corners and sides. Press into place.
• Place butter, syrup and sugar into a large pan and heat gently until the ingredients are just melted together, stirring occassionally. Leave to cool for 10 minutes (it helps if you place the pan away from the hob during this time since it will remain warm).
• Beat the eggs with the milk. Add the flour and milk/egg mixture to the cooled syrup mixture in the pan and beat steadily with a wooden spoon until all the lumps have gone. This may take a few minutes so you will need a little patience. Pour the mixture into the tin.
• Bake for around 50 minutes. The cake will be well risen and springy, but still very moist. After a few minutes cooling time, pierce the cake all over with a skewer and spoon the extra golden syrup over the top. Leave to cool completely in the tin.
• This cake keeps for a week and only improves with time! A real treat and a cake you will be asked to make again and again.
