Nice one - one of my colleagues makes this for our parties and it goes down a treat.  Now we have the TMX version.

Thanks

Made this yesterday for friends who were dropping by.  It went in no time.  Absolutely beautiful.
Thanks Sheree.

Made this again for the 3rd time last night, and always a favourite.
I made 2 cob loaves, so there was plenty of bread.



I usually go with the half quantity......always enough

Would be nice too, served as an entree in individual home made rolls I would think. Thanks for bumping this one maddy and for the photo too, looks great.  Did you crisp up your bread as per the recipe or just break it up and leave it soft?

[maddy]

I did crisp up the bread Judy.....I like it crunchy.
Individual rolls is a great idea.....it also solves the double-dipping problem......which I'm always picking the kids up on!
