Do try it - it's worth it!

[chickencam]

It's also on the list for me today

[lisaroo2]

Thanks for the replies! The egg bit...how do I know what size to use? Does it matter? My girls lay all sorts of sizes... sorry but I'm not that an experienced cook yet to just guess...

Weigh your 3 eggs in their shells, & then use the same weight for the fat, flour & sugar!

[lisaroo2]

Thanks Jules!

 

I do feel abit thick with this cooking lark still...

[chickencam]

Made one yesterday, very yummy

[Egluntyne]

It is in the Omlet Cookbook on the Wiki too.

 

I make it regularly now.

Jules - that is a good tip with regard to weighing the eggs. I was wondering the other day - I made brownies but the eggs that I bought (marked as "Large") looked a lot smaller than usual, so I added an extra one for good measure. If anybody wants the recipe for the brownies, I'll gladly pop it on here if there isn't one already.

I have just made a fairy cake version and very nice they are too Quality control you understand quality control

 

The egg weighing method again. I wanted slightly more mixture so i weighed 4 eggs and did equal quantities of the other ingredients it makes sponge making so much more flexible

I make lemon drizzle cupcakes for the boys lunch boxes. Very popular!! I don't use icing sugar for my topping but do what Mum always used to do. I mix the juice of 1 lemon with 4oz granulated sugar for a lovely crunchy topping. Spoon it over the hot cake or cupcakes and then cool.

Don't feel thick Lisa - I've found cooking is a life long learning experience! Until I discovered the joys of the Omlet forum, I couldn't cook anything without a recipe book. Now I can throw cakes together in seconds! My husband can forgive my Omlet addiction, as long as the cooking continues to improve

Yess pleeeeeeaaaase.... i love chocolate brownies, but struggle finding a recipe that works.... even better if it doesn't have nuts in, i hate nuts....

[The Dogmother]

There wwas one i posted a while ago for double chocolate browines - they are the total dogs doodaas!

[LJ's Chooks]

Mmm will have to hunt for that one...

 

Thanks Claret... just finished the drizzle cake! YUMMY! shame i'll have to share!

[The Dogmother]

It's also in my blog, on this post http://claretblog.vox.com/library/post/another-busy-saturday.html

HFW has a great brownie recipe in his Family cookbook, it does have nuts in but you could leave them out.

 

IMO nuts are essential in a brownie to cut through the richness.

 

There is also a great chocolate chunk cookie recipe in the same book.

[LJ's Chooks]

Oooh HFW cookbook, now on my list of yummy things. I don't do nuts, but a local coffee shop uses banana instead and that is gorgeous... but they wont give me the recipe!! rats!!!!

 

Claret - you've just cost me 3 pounds... weight and money! Made a lemon drizzle cake for my youngest sons school fair... i didn't have enough ingredients for two, so i had to get up early and go and buy it back before someone else did... is that mad or what.... my hubby has eaten most of it as his midnight treat!!! love him

[Lesley]

- I love that tale LJ

 

I always buy my cakes back from fairs etc. - I know what is in them

[Egluntyne]

Same here.
