chocolate icing is nice on it too- it was a firm favourite for school lunches when the kids were little in this household- still make it when they come home.

Hi Darlingmole... I noticed there is no baking powder in your recipe. Did you mean to include it, or does not need need it with the flour (eg is the 2 cups flour self raising flour)? Thanks.
