Recipe Introduction


Not really cakes at all, but a spicy shortbread. The traditional way to
make Gossnargh Cakes was to form the dough into a neat square and place
on a baking sheet. When cooked, it was cut into squares while still warm


List of Ingredients




8oz flour
pinch of salt
6oz butter
half teaspoon caraway seeds
half teaspoon ground coriander
1oz caster sugar
a little extra sugar

Recipe



In a bowl, sift the flour and salt together, then rub in the butter
until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs and work together until a
smooth dough is formed. Turn out on to a lightly floured surface and
roll out to quarter inch in thickness, the cut into 2-inch rounds. Place
on a large, well-greased baking sheet. Mix together the spices and sugar
and sprinkle over the cakes. Leave in a cool place overnight. Set oven
to 300°F or Mark 2 and bake the cales for 40 to 50 minutes until firm,
but still quite pale in colour. Place on a wire rack and sprinkle over
the extra sugar while still warm. Makes about 16.
