Reporting in to say I made the Cappucino Cake today - I don't really eat my own baking (I'm more of a savoury person) but the other half has already demolished about a quarter of it so it must be good! sorry I'm not sure what page it's on, probably near the start of the thread and it was really easy to make so I fully recommend it!

When making cakes Make 2 of the same then one can be frozen and ready for the hungry ones or the unexpected arrivals, if you need a pudding in a hurry. Can be served with custard or ice cream after warming in microwave.

and my lemon yoghurt cake recipe was given to my Mum years ago by a freind in America -hence the bundt tin. Have loved that cake for years and it is so super easy to make and freezes beautifully. I also make a sour cream one which is nice, but I do prefer the lemon yoghurt cake - you can also use limes instead.

Cont. Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C. Butter and line the bottom of a deep, round 20cm cake tin with greaseproof paper. Beat the first seven ingredients together in a large bowl (electric hand- beaters are best for this), until pale and thick. Using a large metal spoon, gently fold in the fruit until evenly combined. Spoon the batter into the tin and bake for 50 mins-1 hr or until the cake is dark golden, springy to the touch and has shrunk away from the tin slightly. A skewer inserted into the centre will come out clean when it's ready. Cool completely before decorating. Will keep, wrapped in an airtight container or iced, for up to a week, or can be frozen un-iced for up to a month - defrost fully before decorating.
