Parkin cake
« on: June 15, 2011, 12:37:48 pm »
Posted somewhere on this site the recipe was wanted, sorry can't find the post.

A Parkin cake is really a ginger cake, absolutely yum. I can email cousins in the uk for the recipe, but it wont be in TM format. Please let me know if you would like it.

I love Parkin cake.

if you can do that hally you can kill 2 birds with one stone, catch up with the relly's and get a recipe. Cookie is very adept at converting recipes and will do almost anything to make sure that her DH is a happy man  ;)

Hally that is so kind of you. Thanks.  :-* :-* :-*

Almost anything CP63. DD is the one that tasted this, although I have no doubt DH will tuck into it too. Leftovers go to car club on Wednesday. ;)
