Dissolve the bicarbonate of soda in the hot water, add it to the egg mixture. Rock cakes became popular in the time of the second world war here in the UK. They were promoted by the Ministry of Food since they required fewer eggs and less sugar than ordinary cakes. This meant people could still enjoy a cake even with the strict rationing that went on for fourteen years.
Steps to make Nuts About Rock Cakes:
- Preheat oven to 190 C / Gas 5. Line a baking tray with non stick greaseproof paper.
- Sift flour, baking powder and salt into a large mixing bowl. Add in the sugar, nutmeg and cinnamon and stir thoroughly ensuring that any lumps of sugar are broken up.
- Add the egg and stir. This will bind the ingredients and start to form a stiff mixture. You will need to add 1 tablespoon of milk. You’ll need to judge whether you need to add a second. If it’s too stiff you won’t be able to “fork” it onto the baking sheet so let that be your guide.
- Get a good forkful of the mixture and “plonk” it onto the baking tray, spacing them out. Allow about 3 to 4cm between each one. You should be able to get 12 rock cakes out of this mixture. You don’t need uniformity of shape, a spikey mound is fine. Sprinkle a little demerara sugar on each to give a crunchy topping.
- Bake in the centre of your oven until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove and transfer to wire rack to cool completely.
- These will keep in a cake tin for 2 to 3 days. They won’t last that long!
