Welshcakes

• 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, diced
• 1 2/3 cup self-rising cake flour
• 1/4 cup sugar, plus more for sprinkling
• 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
• Scant 1/2 cup golden raisins
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 3 -inch crinkle round cutter
• Smooth griddle or cast-iron frying pan

1. Rub the butter into the flour as you would if making biscuits, then stir in the sugar, spice, and dried fruit.
2. Add the egg to make a soft but not sticky dough.
3. Form a disc, cover with plastic wrap, and leave in the refrigerator for a minimum of 20 minutes.
4. Roll out on a floured surface to a thickness of about 1/4 inch, and cut out your little cakes; you will need to re-roll and so forth but that shouldn't be problematic.
5. Preheat your unoiled griddle or cast-iron frying pan and cook the cakes for about 3 minutes each side, until golden brown.
6. Remove to a cold plate and sprinkle with sugar.
