The original recipe was by MaryBerry which I have adapted slightly. ½ tsp almond extract. If the top starts to brown too heavily before the centre is cooked, cover lightly with foil
If MaryBerry admits to using shop bought puff then that's good enough for me. Change the ground nuts in the frangipane to classic almonds and pair with apricots or pears, or try a combination of cherries and pistachio, or walnut and banana
I love a good Bakewell,whether it's the authentic way with flaked almonds instead of icing sugar or whether it's the commercial way with globs of icing sugar and a plump, candied cherry or whether it's MaryBerry's controversial recipe
Jen made MaryBerry’s lemon yoghurt cake last year and enjoyed the taste and texture that the yoghurt gave to the cake, so that was the inspiration for this recipe, and I think her cakes look SO pretty as well as sounding wonderful with all those great ingredients
Kate and I are looking for any type of cake, BUT, a Celebration Cake would be WONDERFUL, and there will be a PRIZE for the BEST cake recipe and post submitted, the prize is a copy of MaryBerry’s Ultimate Cake Book
These are my three favourite desserts all are great to make for the family or when entertaining - MaryBerry's marbled chocolate cheesecake, a classic Bakewell tart, and chocolate and Caramac roulade
After the first episode, I wanted to try Mary’s Frosted Walnut Cake and so created a vegan, wholegrain, refined-sugar free version which turned out more delicious than I could have hoped for
Taking a lead from the best, Hijacked by Twins shared her MaryBerry’s Bakewell Tart. (Picture below) Very tempted by this ElderberryTart & also the accompanying recipe for Elderberry Jelly with Port
