CUTTING CAKE – Very Like Ernest Adam’s Light Fruitcake 1½ tbsp cornflour 1 cup each of cold water and sugar 225g butter ½ tsp each of almond essence, lemon essence, orange essence and vanilla essence 3 eggs 3 cups flour 2 tsp baking powder 450g sultanas Boil the cornflour and water until thick, then cool. Cream the butter, sugar and essences, then add the eggs, one at a time. Sift the flour, baking powder and coat sultanas with a few spoonfuls. Add the remaining flour and baking powder alternately with the cornflour mixture to the creamed mixture. Lastly add the sultanas and pour the mixture into a paper-lined cake tin. Bake at 170°C for 1½ hours.
You could add mixed spice, cinnamon,to make it more flavoursome!
