Getting the garden ready for a mild summer' day barbecue
After eight years, I still love our patio (inspired from a Geoff Hamilton garden book)
Oh deary me. I seem to be very behind in my blogging. Or I have cooked more than I intended to blog.
Anyway, buoyed by the success of my recent rhubarb cheesecake, I decided to bake again. One of my BFFs had made this for me a while back, and as I love sickly, sweet, sticky puddings, I thought I would bake this for the pudding at a Sunday bar-b-q.
I don't have the recipe in a book and ended up going on-line.
A cake made with condensed milk and dates - should be yummy.
and with sooo much butter!!!!!!
Now with the flour added.
Ready for baking....
Cake baked...
And wouldn't you know it... by the time I served this, I forgot to take a picture.
The cake was NOT as nice as my BFF's one. In fact I would not even describe mine as a sticky toffee and date cake. My one tasted like a fruit cake. Back to square one - I will learn to bake one day!
BTW it was nice warmed up in the microwave as it seemed to make the cake moister- but I still think I jinx making puddings.
