There's nothing better than sitting down with a hot cuppa and a sweet treat. I love cake, probably a little too much and I love always having something ready to go in my cake tin. It's always nice to have something ready for that late afternoon slump or for when someone pops in for a chat. I discovered the inspiration for this recipe last year, it was inspired by a Christmas Tray Bake recipe by the fabulous Mary Berry and I adapted it to my taste and store cupboard. It's a little to no rise fruit cake which I cut in to bars for serving. It's rich and golden and foes great with a cup of tea or coffee. You can use marzipan and icing like I do or keep it plain, its adaptable throughout the year and keeps well if you can stand to stop eating it. Fruit Cake Tray Bake I stary with 175g of butter or margarine whichever is your preference and 175g of light brown sugar. Creaming them together until light and fluffy before I add 4 eggs, 175g of plain flour, 450
