I think, in spite of their looks, these are the worst cakes so far. We even ended up throwing some away, which is unheard of.
The problem with them was the texture. The flavour was ok, but the texture was described by some in the family as "claggy"! You certainly needed a drink to be able to manage them.
For a laugh, Tom decided to put a whole one in his mouth. It was the quietest he'd been in ages!!!
Surprisingly, the recipe does not contain eggs, just butter, icing sugar, SR flour and cornflour. Normallly I like to find recipes without eggs, but I wouldn't inflict these on our neighbours! I think the closest thing I would describe them to would be a Viennese biscuit, but they were just too dense. It might have been me, maybe I was out of practice, but I wouldn't bother with them again. They received a pathetic 4.5!
