Hullo and welcome!
A few weeks ago, we make Christmas Cake. Here are the ingredients!
|
That's lots of mixed fruit soaked overnight in brandy, flour, sugar, eggs, butter, spices, citrus zest We used Nigella's recipe from "How to be a Domestic Goddess" |
You'll also need to be good friends with some of this...
|
She didn't get any. |
Lining the tin is terribly important.
|
O hai! |
See? And
apparently I got the wrong idea about what creaming means.
|
We beat the heck out of it! |
I think you're allowed to make wishes when you're stirring Christmas cake... I didn't really have time for that, cause I was licking the loose mixture off of my fingers. Yum!
|
There was mixture on the Makie, the floor, the ceiling... |
But I guess the one wish I had did come true... the human did all the cleaning up!
|
And it took *ages* |
We'll be marzipanning and icing the cake next weekend. Can't wait!
