Let the Fun Begin!

This week the first Infosheets and Quizzes have been sent out (a copy of the first quiz can also be found under the ‘Quizzes’ tab).

The first Infosheet has it all – Spring festivals, Easter, April Fool’s Day, Walpurgisnacht, Dance into May and so much more.

Here is a copy of our favourite Spring-cake – the Lammkuchen (Lamb-cake)

What you’ll need:
• 100g butter (softened)
• 100g cornflour
• 100g sugar
• 100g self-raising flour
• 1 tsp vanilla essence
• 100g ground almonds or hazelnuts
• 3 eggs
• Sprinkle of salt
• Extra butter and icing sugar

Here’s how you do it:
Preheat the oven to 180˚C. Using an electric mixer beat together all the ingredients (except for the extra butter and icing sugar) until the mixture is smooth. Using the extra butter grease the cake tin and spoon in the mixture. Let the cake bake for 60-70 minutes (until a skewer comes out clean). Once it is ready, take the cake out of the oven, let it cool and remove it from the form. Place the cake onto a plate and dust it with icing sugar. You may wish to tie a colourful ribbon around the lamb’s neck.
