Jill,

Round my way they just call it Boiled Cake,  good thing is it is fatless,  until you slather the butter on that is.  ;D

I made 2 last week and took them to church for the kids Harvest Service,  they went down a treat.  8) Almost as good as the Buttons Cake my daughter (Jess,  10)  made for the kids.

Kazza.

It is a bit like Malt loaf, yes, but fatless........No!

1 Cup Cold Tea
1 Cup Currants
1 Cup Sultannas
1 Cup Sugar
2 Cups S/R Flour
1 tsp. Bicarb
1 tsp. Mixed Spice
2 oz. Margarine
2 Eggs.

Put tea, fruit, marg. bicarb & spice in pan, bring to boil and simmer 15 mins.   When cool add sugar, flour & beaten eggs.  Bake in greased & floured 2 lb. bread tin at 325-350 degrees for one and a half hours.

Enjoy - oh and the cup is English tea cup, not American!

My Goodness!   What a busy weekend you are going to have Fitty!   Baking, yomping round graveyards, not to mention searching for Baxendales and floating on cloud 9!
