Welsh Cakes

A traditional Welsh cake is somewhere between a cookie and a scone, a cake like texture in a large cookie sized portion. I haven't seen these anywhere outside Wales and it's a great shame.
Ingredients
- 4oz margarine shopping list
- 4oz sugar shopping list
- 8oz plain flour shopping list
- 3oz sultanas shopping list
- 1 egg shopping list
How to make it
- Mix the sugar and margarine in a bowl together
- Sieve the flour into the bowl and mix (some people like to add a bit of cinnamon as well)
- Add the sultanas to the bowl and mix
- Add the egg and mix until the mixture comes together
- Put some flower down on the work tops so that it doesn't stick and then roll your dough out with a rolling pin (don't roll it too thin or when you cook the Welsh cakes they may be a bit hard)
- Use a round cutter (or the top of a drinking glass if you don't have cutters) to cut out circles from the dough
- Fry the Welsh cakes in a frying pan (I don't use any butter to fry them but you can try that if they are sticking to the pan) you will probably have room for 4 cakes at a time in the pan and cook them until they are light brown on both sides which will probably take about 2 minutes each side
- Leave them to cool and sprinkle with caster sugar if you wish
