Alison Holst's CHOCOLATE AND BANANA MUFFINS 2 cup self-raising flour ½ cup each of caster sugar and chocolate chips ½ tsp salt 100g butter 1 cup milk 1 egg 1 tsp vanilla essence 1 cup (2-3) mashed bananas
With a fork, stir together in a large bowl the flour, caster sugar, chocolate chips and salt. In another bowl/container melt the butter, remove it from the heat, then add the milk, egg and vanilla essence and beat well. Stir in the bananas, then tip all the liquid mixture into the bowl with the dry mixture. Fold everything together carefully until all the flour is dampened, stopping before the mixture is smooth. Put about ¼ cup of mixture into each of 12 non-stick sprayed muffin pans. Bake at 220°C for 12-15 minutes, until the muffins spring back when pressed in the centre. :-))

Chocolate Caramel Fudge ( my favourite ) 125 g butter, 2 tablespoons golden syrup, 1 can highlander condensed milk, 1 cup brown sugar & 75g cooking chocolate broken into pieces.
Grease a shallow 10cm x 25cm tin. Melt the butter in a saucepan, add the golden syrup, condensed milk & brown sugar, cook over low heat stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves. Bring to boil stirring then reduce the heat to moderate and cook for 10-12 minutes or until the mixture is caramel coloured and forms a soft ball in cold water or reaches 114c on a candy thermometer. Remove from the heat and add the choc and beat until smooth. Pour into tin, leave until set then cut into squares.

Probably because a cake is a recipe where careful measurements must be made and there is much room for disaster or catastrophe :)With savoury recipes of all kinds you can be more slap dash and still have a success.
I posted a Never-fail sponge, not because I don't have 1001 tasty dinner recipes, but because for years I tried to make a good sponge and didn't succeed until this one (which, incidentally, came from the Foodie Pages of the Christchurch Press).
Can I substitute more vegetables for the pork?...Genuine question ;)
