St David's day Welshcakes

Today I decided to make Welshcakes

Ingredients:
225g Self raising flour
110g salted butter
85g caster sugar
1 egg
A handful of sultanas
Milk if needed

Sieve the flour into a bowl, rub in the butter to make a breadcrumb mixture.

Add the caster sugar & sultanas and mix.

Add the egg

And mix to make dough. Add some milk if required (I added a splash as my egg was quite small).

Taste mixture!

Roll out to 1/2 cm thickness (dust board & rolling pin with flour to stop sticking)

Cut out Welshcakes with a cookie cutter. Heat heavy bottomed frying pan (or flat griddle) to medium.

Cook for 2-3 mins a side, until browned.

Leave to cool on rack

MB takes macro shot!
