What size baking dish?? 8×8 or 9×9 or 9×12? Prepared with butter and flour or just butter?
Hi Vicki, thank you for checking in. To answer your questions: As for the size of the dish, it will depend on how thick you wish to make the cake. Unfortunately the lady that provided us with the recipe did not mention the size, but my suggestion would be to try a 9×9 or even better, once you prepared the batter you will be able to see which will work best. As for the ingredients, the recipe mention to use: 200 g butter and 1/2 cup self-raising flour. Hope this will help.
Sorry, my question wasn’t clear re: butter/flour. I wondered if you prepare the baking dish by greasing with only butter or buttered and floured. Thanks.
Hi Vicki. No worries, You will not go wrong if you use both. Should you use the flour as well, only use a light dusting and toss the rest by tipping your dish to discard the excess. Hope you will enjoy it, and please come and tell us how it turned out
Yum, this sounds delicious. I love quick recipes.
Hi Pam – thanks, yes love those in less than an hour, or even better less than 30 minutes.
Quick and easy to make sounds perfect!
Yes for sure an easy and lovely treat
