tell me what you'd make - quick quick i need sugar fix

[OnlyWantsOne]

Im in love with golden syrup.

I have all the ingredients to make cakes / cookies etc

what shall I make?

im grumpy and in early labour so need destraction

Treacle tart and custard.

Hobnobs. See recipe in recipe section. Bloody delish.

Flapjacks. Will be good slow release energy later.

Or straight from the jar

Pancakes?

Microwave treacle pudding - two egg sponge mix, treacle in bottom of dish, microwave for four minutes. Devour.

tbh I would just have it on toast but I am lazy!

homemade granola

its good for you and the baby and it keeps brilliantly in an airtight container

how you getting on?

I made the microwave sponge... FANTASTIC scootergirrrrrrl I loves ya!

We had it for after tea too. Also good with jam!

How's the labour going?

feels like period from hell but no contractions which im thankfull for as needed some sleep :) seriously fab recipe, so much better than the 3 min choc mug cake.

I sent my dad a photo of ours and he phoned me for the recipe (he also loves steam treacle pud) and then he made one!!

oh wow good luck with the labour :) What exactly do you need for the sponge? (Have been chastised by MNers for not knowing the difference between sponge and Victoria sandwich or some such)

For a sponge to serve four (or one lady in labour!), cream 125g each of butter and caster sugar, mix in two beaten eggs then add 125g self raising flour.
You can make it bigger by increasing the weighed ingredients by 60g or so for each extra egg you add. I think we might have it again tonight!

wow thanks Scooter :o

I'm presuming you'd do it in a pudding basin type thing, with lots of syrup going in first...yum. Tomorrow night sorted then.

Indeed. Cover it with clingfilm to stop it rising like buggery but don't forget to poke a few holes in or it'll explode!
You can make a chocolate version by substituting 25g of cocoa powder for some of the flour if you like.
I wont be blamed if you put on seven stone by eating treacle pudding every night though

2 eggs mix is

2 egg then 4 flour, 4 sugar, 4 fat (butter) - I work in ounces!!!

Was bloody good! (and I only had about 1/4 of it scootrrrrr lol

Sure you did

And anyway, what are you still doing here!

Toffee shortbread aka Millionaire's shortbread. Mine's just waiting the toffee bit at the moment.

How's it going Only? Will check back for baby news!
