Coburg Cakes

2home Ingredients    
  5 oz Plain Flour
  3 oz Sugar
  2 oz  Margarine
    Warm Milk
  1 Egg
  1 tsp Treacle
  1 tsp Golden Syrup
  1 tsp Cinnamon
  0.5 tsp Bicarbonate of Soda
  a few Almonds

Method

Mix the flour, bicarbonate of soda, cinnamon and sugar.  Beat the egg and heat the margarine and golden syrup and treacle until a liquid.  Add the eggs to the dry ingredients and mix, then add the margarine mixture and sufficient warm milk to form a soft dropping consistency.  Note this is much softer than for almost all other cakes.

Take a greased tray for small cakes or buns and put a whole almond into each well.  Half fill each well with the mixture.

Bake in a moderate oven for about 15 minutes.
