Rock Cakes
Ingredients
- Self-raising Flour – 225g
- Caster Sugar – 75g
- Baking Powder – 1 tsp
- Butter – 125g
- Dried Fruit – 150g
- Eggs – 1
- Milk – 1 tbs
- Vanilla Extract – 2 tsp
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4 and line a baking tray with baking parchment.
- Mix the flour, sugar and baking powder in a bowl and rub in the cubed butter until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs, then mix in the dried fruit.
- In a clean bowl, beat the egg and milk together with the vanilla extract.
- Add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients and stir with a spoon until the mixture just comes together as a thick, lumpy dough.
- Add a teaspoon more milk if you really need it to make the mixture stick together.
- Place golfball-sized spoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking tray.
- Leave space between them as they will flatten and spread out to double their size during baking.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden-brown.
- Remove from the oven, allow to cool for a couple of minutes then turn them out onto a wire rack to cool.
