I have to admit I don't like dates but was excited to try a date brownie for the challenge but unfortunately ran out of time as I was ill then had to catch up with Christmas baking.

I do like the sound of the original prune cake, but this worked well I thought (although I've had enough of dates for the time being)!<br /><br />VegBoxBoy - thank you for the good wishes. What I have, is a pile of posts that need to be written! Hope you had a good Christmas.<br /><br />Chele - thank you. I know dates are not your favourite. Hope you enjoyed and are continuing to enjoy Christmas.<br /><br />Dom - nice one - now I can't get rid of the image of your head being buried in my cake. Hope you're enjoying the festivities.<br /><br />Raffaella - thank you. Hope you are having a good time too.<br /><br />Oxslip - think you are probably right there. Hope you're enjoying Christmas.<br /><br />Celia - thank you. The flavour of the rinds was delicious, but I over dried them, so they were a bit chewy.<br /><br />Joanna - thank you. No trains for a while - hoorah! And I seem to be doing a fair bit of chocolate consumption :) Hope you're having a good Christmas.<br /><br />BVG - thanks - hope you're having a good Christmas too.<br /><br />MangoCheeks - thank you and I hope you are at least enjoying a well deserved break from work.Choclettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00173996730095174268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897540628930976052.post-83308998131663148462010-12-26T12:22:09.094+00:002010-12-26T12:22:09.094+00:00Merry Christmas to you Choclette.xMerry Christmas to you Choclette.xShaheenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03602971207085826708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8897540628930976052.post-5507354022109341772010-12-25T08:36:52.555+00:002010-12-25T08:36:52.555+00:00Looks great Choclette.

I was worried that the mixture was too dry when I made this cake, but trusted Dan's skills and it baked to a really light texture.<br /><br />Happy Christmas!Suellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04824039607448635437noreply@blogger.com
