How did you get on Rollon? I haven't made this cake in ages but your thread got me thinking about it so I've got one in the oven now (and I don't mean a third child!)

we haven't managed to do it yet. but have printed off your recipe and hope to do it soon. of one in the oven [hmm[ cake that is

I had half a bag of chocolate chips near to use by date and lobbed those instead of the nuts. Yummy.

You are putting me to shame now right I'm finished work for the week so girls are happy on trampoline house is dare i say not to bad. But not in good enough order to start baking but would love to have a go have all the ingredients. tempted will let you know how i get on. other side of channel i read it as other side of the pond ie america with the cups and all!!! I take it you are in France? just being nosey now

Yes, just the otherside of the channel in northern France. My bro is the other side of the pond hence the American SIL.

my sister is married to a frenchman has lived there over 17 years now she is west Lezay nearest biggest town would be Celles sur belle /Poitier. poor spelling have no french. infact not a very good command of the english language. Perhaps because I am irish .

I think there are a lot of English speakers in that area. It's supposed to be very pretty.

CHOCOLATE BANANA BREAD:

1 1/4cups SR Flour
1tsp cinnamon
30g butter - 1tbsp and 2 teaspoons worth
1/2 cup caster sugar

1 egg, lightly beaten
1 medium banana ? mashed
1/4 cup milk ( skim if you like)
50g dark chocolate bits - I jsut sprinkle in some never weigh them.

1. Preheat oven to 190 degrees Celsius
2. Sift the flour and cinnamon into a medium bowl and using your fingertips rub in the butter
3. Stir in the remaining ingredients ? sugar, splenda, banana, egg, milk and choc bits
4. Pour into a prepared loaf tin.
5. Bake for 20 minutes or until cooked.
6. Cool and cut into slices ready to serve.

silly question but what is spenda? nice recipe thanks might have to get choc chips can i use easter eggs still a few lurking?

oops splenda

splenda is an artificial sweetner - I took it out of the ingredients and forgot to take it out of the recipe. Just ignore that - usually you can use 1/4 cup caster sugar and 1/4 artificial sweetner. I just use 1/2 cup caster sugar.
