Quick Fix Every Occasion - yoghurt cake p 203
« on: September 11, 2013, 06:50:33 am »
I made this today and will have to stay out of the kitchen so I don't keep sampling it.
Too yummy!
I did my version as follows (only because I am hopeless at following a recipe! and it depends on what ingredients I do or do not have in the pantry)

I put in 110g sugar as I always halve the sugar in any recipe
I used lime instead of lemon
I used tinned plums (didn't have any other fruit suitable)
And I forgot the sugar on top - would make it a bit crunchy I think.
I had to cook it for an extra 10 minutes, but that be my oven.
Probably should have pushed the plums in a bit more - but it still tastes good.

That looks very, very tasty.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

There's none left this morning and both girls and hubby said "you can make that one again".

It is a keeper!

Made this yesterday using 250g of strawberries which I soaked in a splash of brandy (DH needed cheering up 😉). I only used 110g of raw sugar and thought that was plenty. I found the mixture wasn't completely mixed when I went to pour it in to the tin so watch out for that. A really yummy cake.

With strawberries so cheap at the moment it would be a good substitute. Thanks for the suggestion. I now have to decide if I should use my strawberries for jam or this.  ??? ???

I made this again yesterday, although with a yummy twist. (Thank you Bonsai for the idea...  :-* )

I cut the strawbs in half and sploshed a bit of grand marnier over them and let them sit for about an hour before I made the cake.

Ohhhhh Yummmmmm  ;D

Thought about it later - should have added a bit of grand marnier to the cream I served the cake with, what a decadent dessert!

This cake is now a firm favourite in our house.  I used pears in mine and it is just so yummy.  I found I needed to cook mine for about 8-10 minutes longer for it to set in the middle.
