Almond and poppy seed loaf cake

Recipe by: alexaw

This cake came about from an inspired moment when craving almonds. It's absolutely divine and has become an often requested recipe. One warning however, whenever I cook this cake it seems to disappear very quickly so make sure you get a slice. I've said the recipe serves 8 but it serves 6-8 depending on how much cake one likes at any sitting!

Amazing Christmas Cake

Recipe by: Karen Uffelman

Be the first to review it!

With its two key ingredients - rum and butter - this Christmas cake recipe ought to be a hit. This is less dense and more cake-like than many Christmas cake recipes. It has become a favourite of my friends and family at Christmas, and is delicious by itself, or covered with a layer of marzipan and icing.

Banana cake

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Reviews(3)

A quick and easy banana cake recipe to prepare using storecupboard ingredients, this cut-and-come-again cake makes a healthy snack for hungry children just back from school, or a handy addition to lunchboxes. It’s a banana cake best made with very ripe bananas, so it’s a good way of using up bananas that have been sitting in the fruit bowl for too long.

Blueberry cheesecake

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Reviews(1)

Compared to most cheesecake recipes, this version isn’t particularly high in fat, as it uses cottage and curd cheeses instead of the traditional cream cheese, and is lightened by folding in whisked egg whites before baking. The delectable filling is set atop a crunchy digestive biscuit and oat base.

This is like the icing that bakeries put on birthday cakes, but I much prefer to make my own since I know what I am putting into it, and as always, homemade is best.

Somebody elses recipe, I don't think they will mind since they have posted it on another site. I haven't made this myself, not yet anyway.

Carrot and Pineapple Cake

Recipe by: chaoskay

Be the first to review it!

This is the nicest cake I've ever cooked. I'll be cooking it for Xmas as my OH hates Xmas cake. Everyone I've ever given it to has said that it's lovely and I often get asked for the recipe. Nicest with proper carrot cake topping made with cream cheese. Variable cooking times, I just keep checking on it and do the skewer test.

Carrot cake with cream cheese frosting

Recipe by: MARYMACLEAN1

Reviews(1)

I was given this about 20 years ago, baked by a cookery teacher friend. I've never dared change it, it's been such an absolute family favourite, always gorgeous, never lets you down. We particularly love the frosting, which uses a little brown sugar instead of icing sugar, giving a more subtle flavour. Some like the pineapple pieces and nuts, others don't: they affect texture rather than taste so use as preferred.

Chamchela's Brownies de Luxe - 10 Steps to Heaven!

Recipe by: screencraft

Be the first to review it!

Specially for the basic galley and lazy on-board cook! The chewy-crispy result is best by using butter and white sugar, but I've used uncoloured golden sugar, and margarine - and even wholemeal flour, but that makes it much heavier. You can also do without the chocolate chunks, or without the nuts, and even without both if you're desperate! Use whatever is in your galley cupboards - add glace cherries, or raisins, instead. Be imaginative! - But the best results come as below.
