These look lovely! I will have to try making some. About how many does this recipe make?
Also, for those who would like to use mixed spice, here's a recipe from the Wikibooks cookbook:
* 1 Tbs ground allspice
* 1 Tbs ground cinnamon
* 1 Tbs ground nutmeg
* 2 tsp ground mace (or 1 tsp additional nutmeg if you don't have mace)
* 1 tsp ground cloves
* 1 tsp ground coriander
* 1 tsp ground ginger
Blend all spices together, and store in a sealed jar away from light.
This recipe makes about 2 dozen 2 3/4" cakes. Thanks for sharing the spice mix, Rose. Elisabeth
