    125 g plain flour
    1 tsp baking powder
    100 g butter, at room temperature, plus extra for greasing

    Conversion Calculator


    Method
    1. Preheat the oven to 170C/gas 3. Butter the sides of a 20 x 20cm square cake tin and line the base with greaseproof paper.

    2. Sift the flour and baking powder into a small bowl and set aside.

    3. In a large bowl, cream the butter and peanut butter together until very soft. Add the sugar, egg and vanilla extract and beat until well combined. Add the flour, baking powder and the chopped chocolate and mix to form a dough.

    4. Place the dough into the prepared tin and bake in the oven for 25–30 minutes, or until golden brown and almost firm in the centre.

    5. Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the tin, before removing and cutting into squares.

    Well I shall be doing Delia's reduced fat carrot cake if that helps

    But if any makes it over to the dance floor (as DB hasn't eaten it) then do eat it, as last time I took loads home and it went to waste... English dancers don't eat as much cakes Scottish ones (or maybe it's just my cakes )

    I wondered if it was just they felt more guilty eating other people's cakes when they don't seem to bring any of their own...
    It does seem to be more of a scottish thing to take cakes. I took lots to my last SP and, after a slow start, managed to get rid of them by telling everyone just to help themselves. Admittedly most of the cake munchers were scottish folk I knew, or their friends!
    It might say something about our heart disease levels too

    Don't worry DB I'm hoping to bake bribe my way into someone's car for Scorch, but I will be baking for a week beforehand, Not only that I can't be the only baker coming down, so I'm sure there will be plenty of cake..

    Go without cake to a weekender?? What happens if there is a delay? I would need to keep up my dance strength!!

    Cheers WT
