English Flan Cake

Friend in England


Recipe Introduction


We fell in love with these while living in England.


List of Ingredients




3 C. sifted Cake Flour
1 1/2 t. baking powder
1/8 t. salt
1 C. Butter, softned
1 1/2 C. Sugar
1 t. Vanilla
3 Eggs, beaten
1/2 C. Milk

Recipe



Sift flour, b.powder, & salt together 3 times.
Cream the butter, sugar, and vanilla till light and fluffy.
Add eggs and beat throughly. Add the sifted dry ingred. and milk alternately in small amounts, beating well after each addition. Pour into a greased flan pan and bake at 350' for 60 min. or done.

***Flan pans are a round cake pan that has a round circle indentation in the middle and usually a ruffled edge.***

In England, they fill the indentation with fruit that has a special kind of jello type mix that is different from any of ours. It's very good.
Here I fill it with fruit and a homemade sugar syrup that I add just a little bit of our jello mix to. It comes close.
