1 x Pinch mixed spice and ginger
4 ounces Dried fruit

Cream the sugar and fat. Mix in the egg and add the remainder of the ingredients, having desolved the bicarbonate in the milk. Bake in a greased tin for about ¾ hour in a moderately hot oven. Gas control, Gas MArk 5 (375F). Alternate: 3 teacupsful of flour; 1 teacupful of butter; 1 teacupful of sugar; 2 teaspoonful of baking powder; 2 eggs; milk to mix; a little dried fruit. Rub the butter into the flour, add sugar, baking powder and well beaten eggs and milk if necessary - it must be kept fairly stiff. This mixture is enough to fill two sandwich tins.
