  This was very easy to make and absolutely delicious. We left out the cointreau but otherwise followed the recipe.

  Couldn't be easier, and was a quick fix for pudding. Didn't make the custard, but did have it with toffee ice cream - yum. Used light brown flour too.

  This cake is absolutely delicious. I didn't bother with the custard and just served it with ice cream as it was only for a midweek family pudding. I only had a shallow tin so cut the baking parchment lining the sides to provide extra height. Cooked at 180C I found it needed another 10 minutes. I will definitely cook this again although I might try making it as an all-in-one mixture to speed things up even further.

  This cake is scrumptious and very easy to make. I trialled it with my hungry boys before taking it on a 'family away weekend 'and it was demolished within the hour! Served it warm with ice cream instead of custard. I will definitely make this again.

  Brilliant recipe!!!! The sponge is surprisingly soft and moist. This was very popular with a bit of pouring cream...... Thumbs up all the way!

  Can you use bramley cooking apples for this or does that make it too tart?

  Just beautiful, I made this at the end of a dinner party and served it warm with cointreau custard and the entire cake was demolished. Will definitely make again.
