I have the urge to bake something but what???? Ideas please

[burstingbug]

I have some raisins, flour, butter, eggs but very little milk. A few other bits in the cupboard
What can I make????

Rock buns

Interested?

hmmm, do they need baking powder though?

Have you got self raising flour or plain flour?

both

Then you don't need baking powder

do you have the recipe?
Please

Oh hell, I will give you the recipe anyway, as it is so quick and easy (I made some yesterday in less than half an hour, cooking time included and my family devoured them in another half and hour!)

Sieve 8oz self raising flour
Rub in with your fingertips 3oz margarine/butter until it resembles breadcrumbs.
Add 3oz sugar (I use caster) and either 4oz chocolate drops or 4oz dried fruit and 1/4 tsp of mixed spice (only with the fruit, not with the chocolate drops -I should think it is optional anyway)
Add one egg and mix it together with a knife. You may need to use a small amount of milk to bring the mixture together into a soft consistency.
Grease a baking tray and put the mixture in small rock like lumps on the tray (leave room for growth)
Bake at 200C for 15 minutes.

Thank you Will do that after lunch with DS1 when he wakes up

It is a great recipe for children to make. You can't really go wrong with it (famous last words...!)
