Lovely basic recipe! I have made these a few times now and have tweaked the recipe to suit my family and our tastes...... In my version i use brown sugar rather than caster, and I occasionally add cherries! If using glacè cherries, quarter them and dust in flour before adding to the mix! - 17 Feb 2018
