Spiced gingerbread tray cake

By Hannah Lewry

Serves 16

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cooking Time 1 hour 20 minutes

Ingredients

375 g butter, softened
6 free-range eggs
675 g self-raising flour
1 t ground ginger
1 t mixed spice
495 g brown sugar
1 cup milk
1 T vanilla extract
Woolworths fondant icing, to decorate
Icing sugar, for dusting
Woolworths shimmer gold stars, to decorate
Honey, warmed, for drizzling

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 165°C. Cream the butter and eggs until pale and fluffy. Place the flour, ginger, mixed spice, sugar, milk and vanilla extract in an electric mixer and beat for 8 minutes until pale and smooth.

2. Spread in an even layer in a 35 x 25 x 5 cm baking tray lined with baking paper. Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until a skewer comes out clean. Set aside to cool completely.

3. Cut stars from the fondant icing using a cookie cutter and use to decorate the cake. Dust with the icing sugar and gold stars and drizzle with the honey.
