    1/3 cup dried currants

    In the large bowl of an electric mixer, beat together first 5 ingredients until butter is finely dispersed. Beat in currants. Thoroughly beat together eggs and cream and, with motor running, slowly add to the flour mixture just until blended. Do not overbeat.

    Spread dough evenly into a greased 10" springform pan. Bake at 350ºF for 30 minutes or until top is golden brown. To serve, cut into thin wedges. Yields 12 slices. Recipe is good with Devonshire cream. Chopped dried apricots can be substituted for the currants. As a variation, add 2 tbl. of toasted chopped almonds.
