OK, here goes...........
Rock Cakes
Makes 12 cakes - 135 cals each
8oz self raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
100g low calorie margarine (like Flora light) chopped into small bits
1 heaped tablespoon Splenda (or other calorie free baking sweetener)
165g mixed dried fruit
1 large egg
2 tbsp milk (if needed)
Heat the oven to 400F/200C/Gas 6
Sieve the flour and baking powder into a large baking bowl, add the margarine, and lightly rub together with fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
Add the sweetener and the dried fruit and mix so all ingredients are well incorporated.
Add the egg and 1 tbsp of the milk and mix to create a stiff dough. If the mixture is still dry add milk another tbsp until required consistency is achieved.
Lightly grease two baking sheets (or line with greaseproof paper). Using a tablespoon divide the mixture into 12 mounds evenly spaced on the 2 baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 mins or until golden brown and well risen.
