Welsh Breakfast Cakes
Last Sunday I decided to make these little cakes for a late breakfast/brunch. They are a yummy cross between a biscuit, a pancake and shortbread cookie. I sprinkled them with cinnamon sugar as they came out of the pan, then Kat and I ate them with a little butter, while Shane had his butter-free. I tried one with a little drizzle of pancake syrup. I didn't like it much that way, but maybe you will.
I found the recipe at My Kitchen Cafe. Other than reducing everything by half, I made them exactly according to the recipe. Give them a try if you want something a little different for breakfast or brunch.

Welsh cookies
Printed!! I bet my daughters will love these. Thanks for the link to them.
YUMMY! I always love your recipes because they are frugal! I think that we have the same plates. Dollar tree?
Have a great weekend!
Cookbook Junkie: Do you use the same recipe?
Sheila: They're a nice change.
SonyaAnn: I'm not sure where I got that plate, but it's the only one I have. It has more colored rings in the middle (covered by the cakes). My everyday plates are a mixed set of Corelle that came from my MIL and my step-MIL. Bet they'd love that if they knew I combined their sets.
We're having a boatload of company this weekend. I should run this past my hubby and see if he wants to do this for them. Looks so good!
My recipe is a bit different. You can see it if you click on the link I posted.
These 'cakes' are commonly sold in the area where I grew up - Scranton, PA. Lard is common but I haven't tried that. I also don't dip mine in sugar which they often do. I don't find the extra sweetness necessary.
Hey
Cookbook Junkie! I've over outside of Wilkes-Barre PA. ;-)
We call these Welsh Cookies here. You have to make them with the currants or raisins....and you don't need to drown them in syrup or anything.
Good Eats!
