I scaled this back serve 4 though if I had made the recipe as written for 16 I could well have eaten all it alone with no problems. It is a gorgeous cake. Mine was a lot "flatter" than the pic shown but that is probably due to making a smaller version. As I was out of sultanas and raisins I used half a jar of fruit mince as my dried fruit and 2 huge apples and this really made a delicious dessert -
Made this the other day when I had 4 friends over for supper, & it was a hit all 'round! Followed the recipe right on down & loved the combo of nuts, apples & raisins! Definitely a keeper of a recipe! Thanks for sharing! [Made & reviewed in Newest Zaar recipe tag]
