another Welsh cake

"Lovely recipe, took me back to when my mother used to make them" , Judy said in a comment here.
What can I say ? I just say that, I made this cake(as a biscuit) in a snowy afternoon with -21 C, with a strong fire in my stove and after I drunk a glass of dry red wine. I don't know if this fact has some relevance but, my Welsh cake was amazing. Of course I made some changes to the recipe, but, how else?

Ingredients:

• 300-350 gr flour
• 100-150 g butter
• 75g sugar
• 100g raisins
• ½ -1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp ginger powder
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 egg
• 1 white egg

I said to myself that a little bit of change may be great and,I adapted Jamie's option to my recipe: vanilla cream. I cuted biscuits in half and I filled them with cream.Then, I served'em with berries syrup. Great taste, more than enough 'sweet' for a cold afternoon and a must be recipe into the Grandma's notebook.

Romanian version:

• 300-350 gr faina
• 100-150 g unt
• 75g zahar
• 100g stafide
• ½ -1 l-ta rasa de praf de copt
• 1 l-ta ghimbir pudra
• 1 l-ta scortisoara
• 1/4 l-ta sare
• 1 ou
• 1 albus

Amesteca faina cu ingredientele uscate. Incorporeaza untul ca pt. un aluat fraged apoi amesteca-l cu stafidele. Adauga oul si albusul. Daca aluatul e prea dur, poti adauga putina smintina sau lapte. Ruleaza-l sub forma unei baghete apoi taie din ea discuri pe care le vei aplatiza, dindu-le forma de biscuiti. Coace-i in tigaie fara grasime sau pe plita.

Ca o variatiune, taie biscuitii in doua si umple-i cu crema de vanilie. Serveste-i cu sirop de fructe de padure.

Enjoy it !
