English Tea Cakes
Hi,
I've tried to make English Tea cakes but am having a problem with the rise/softness.......!!
I've tried Paul Hollywood's recipe with the spices and candied fruits but they came out flat!!!
the second time I made without the spices and candied peel, made it a bit slacker dough - looked quite good until I toasted them and they were hard......!! (solid dough)
One from off the net just plain with Sultanas not so bad but still not getting a rise, toasted okay but very thin.
Any suggestions on what's going wrong or anyone got a fail proof recipe.
I'm used to baking bread so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Any help would be appreciated
