Sound a bit like my system of recipes. I intend to try at least a couple of yours and will, of course, let you know. best regards
Oh - my original comment on your Bakewell tart has disappeared!
Thank you. The majority are my own, or adaptations of various recipes that I have used over the years, either from books, magazines, the internet or friends and family. I try to credit the source if I can remember it. I started keeping them on here to reduce the piles of paper and it is proving to be so useful that I have amassed quite a collection already. Let me know if you try any out.
Thanks,it's a recipe from an old falling to bits McDougal book condensed by me. Incidently, you've submitted some great recipes are they all yours?
