Boiling the sultanas first is the secret to this moist and buttery sultana cake. What’s even better is the fact that it’s a one-pot wonder and will keep in an airtight container for up to a week. You will also find this recipe in Volume 2.
Ingredients:
2 cups sultanas
250g (8.8oz) butter (chopped into 1cm cubes)
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
Method:
• Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease and line a 20x20 cm (8x8 inch) square cake tin.
• Place the sultanas in a saucepan, cover with water.
• Bring to the boil, simmer for 10 minutes and then drain.
• Add the chopped butter to the hot sultanas. Stir to melt.
• Stir in the sugar, then the lightly beaten eggs and vanilla.
• Sift in the flour and baking powder, mix until combined, then pour into the cake tin.
• Bake for 30–40 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
• Cool in the tin for 15 minutes before placing on a wire rack to cool.
Serves: 12

Very helpful article for teams planning IT upgrades. Disposing of network gear is easier with a trusted partner; we used a professional Network Equipment Scrap Buyer in UAE who evaluated our equipment, scheduled collection, and completed the transaction smoothly. They also ensured that recyclable materials were handled according to regulations.
Great post — love how you expressed this so clearly! Reminds me of the vibe I get from the Green Bay Packers Sideline Sleeveless Green Hoodie at Vanson Jackets — laid-back yet bold.
This article cleared up a lot of confusion for me. Please write an article about Idyllic Gardening!
I wasn’t sure what to expect, but ordering from https://payforessay.net/ was surprisingly easy. The dashboard made tracking progress simple, and I could chat with the writer directly, which was helpful. The final essay matched the instructions and had a professional flow. Prices weren’t bad either, especially with the discounts. Overall, it’s a service I’d use again if deadlines stack up.
