Oh good ! I was looking for my copy of Armenian Nutmeg Cake yesterday, couldn't locate it and decided that I would have to trawl through this thread. Cookessentials, I'm sure I remember that it was you who posted the recipe and although I haven't made it for years I remember that it makes a really lovely cake.

cookessentials, Apr 18, 9:46am
Hi Indy, yes I did and I do love it as it is not too sweet. Let us know what you think of this particular recipe.
