Coffee and walnut is the best cake.

St Clements cake. It's delicious, but the glaze is too much. If I use that recipe again I will reduce the sugar.
God that looks amazing. Ever since you posted about it a few days ago,I've been hankering for one.

I made a fruit cake, based on the vegan courgette and lemon recipe. It works perfectly.
There's something about this time of year that makes me want a cup of tea and a slice of fruit cake as it starts to get dark.

I made ginger biscuits from this recipe. Don't use it. Ginger biscuits recipe | BBC Good Food
Once again, a BBC Good Food recipe is a bit shit. Dough was wayyyy too wet! Wasn't even dough, I had to spoon the fucker onto the baking tray. They turned out to be more like flattish ginger cakes rather than the crisp biccies I had in mind.
Oh well. They taste gorgeous, just not crisp at all.

Think I used this recipe last time I made them:
How to make perfect ginger nut biscuits | Food | The Guardian
<strong>Felicity Cloake:</strong> How do you ensure that satisfying snap when you bite into them? What do you add for that fiery sweetness? And where should you hide the biscuit tin?
Cor, that looks great, thanks Orang Utan ! Ahh, says in there that Mary Berry's recipe is also too moist, due to the egg. I was gonna make them next, glad you posted this!

Recipe...?
Here you go
Toffee Apple Upside-Down Cake
3 eating apples, cored, two grated and the third thinly sliced
25g butter or vegan butter (something like the Naturli blocks, not spreadable marg stuff)
200g light brown sugar
180g plain flour
1 tsp bicarb
1½ tsp mixed spice
75 ml sunflower or veg oil
1 tsp vinegar
Zest of 1 lemon
75g chopped walnuts
Melt the butter and 90g of the sugar together, pour into a lined (base and sides) 23cm square tin and arrange the sliced apple in a layer on top.
Combine flour, the remaining sugar, bicarb and mixed spice, and in a separate bowl combine oil, vinegar, grated apple, lemon zest and 175ml of water.
Quickly mix wet and dry ingredients together then stir in walnuts. Pour into tin, on top of sliced apples, and bake at 180°C for 30–40 mins. Cool in tin for a bit before turning out.

Trust me, they are. Why do you think I end up baking so many?

Not strictly baking, but I have spent far longer than is reasonable creating greaseproof paper tubes to package them in. Turns out that a tube of 21cm radius is just perfect for slotting 4cm biscuits into, and I have a nice little system going where I can stack them up on a former, put the tube over, and then fold and paste the tops and bottoms.

Made a small wheaten soda bread but it’s come out looking somewhere between The Mekon, a spider’s face or a decoration from the Mexican day of the dead. Mrs SFM thought decorating it with drawing pins would improve things

Bit late to the party but I bloody love cheese straws. And shortbread.
Make some!

I could only find Alcohol By Volume when I googled and.it.cant be that!
Already Been Vaped. Weed that's been vaped still contains a little THC, and a lot of CBN and CBD. I keep it and make oil to take sublingually, or grind it for baking.
