Date & Walnut Traybake

Last Friday at school, we hosted a coffee morning for new year 3 parents. 20 people came along, which was great. Hopefully the thought of home made cakes made the prospect more appealing.
I did relent, and made the chocolate fudge cake that I have made previously, but I also made this date and walnut traybake.
It seemed to go down well, and as there was plenty of it, I have put some in the freezer for our Macmillan coffee morning, which is this Friday.
What was left from the school coffee morning went in the staff room, so hopefully they all enjoyed it!
The recipe was straight forward, but its worth noting that the mixture needs to be spread smooth in the tin as it leaves quite an uneven top. I ended up turning it over to ice it, hence the lovely smooth icing above! If you like date and walnuts, you would like this cake. We gave it 8.5
