Apologies for the [censored] spelling too. I have just come in from walking and my

fiddley...

Hello Folks
Just wondering if anyone has to hand a copy of a recipe trail published a
couple of years ago. It was for a flapjack with loads of fruit and minimal
cooking. I made it and loved it but have lost the recipie. If anyone could
help I would be well chuffed.

Cheers
Rich

What's wrong with walking on your feet like everyone else?

I may well have it - I don't remember chucking any Trails for a couple of
years (don't know why!), but it may take me a day or two to find it. Watch
this space!

Cheers for that.
My fingers have thawed out a bit now!

Take any recipe for flapjacks and add more fruit!

Try dried apricots and other things other than sultanas.

Normally I would, but this recipe was fantastic and my wife wants more!

Dunno but here is my recipie.....

8oz rolled oats
8oz butter
8oz sugar
4oz fruit.

Mix

Spread in greased tin

20-30 mins at gas 4

Easy.

Good for walking as doesn't crumble, isn't sticky and is full of calories.
Not the "best" recipie for excellent flapjacks but is optimised to last a
while and not fall apart after a day in the rucksack.

Must try that. I freely admit to loving flapjack since first trying my
teachers wife's flapjacks on a school trip to Snowdonia many moons ago
(25 yrs, aarrgh!). Seem to remember more treacle though. Perhaps some
of the sugar should be replaced with molasses?

There was a recipie for a kind of fruity loaf in Trail around a year
or two ago that I'm trying to find now - anyone know which issue it
was in?

No, I couldn't find it in the end - it must've been in one of the two or
three that got mashed up.

I did however find one for chocolate ginger squares, which look pretty damn
good, so here it is:

250g ginger nut biscuits, crushed
2tbsp cocoa powder
2tbsp golden syrup
1tbsp caster sugar
125g butter
1 heaped tbsp ground ginger
175g dark plain chocolate
1-2tbsp sultanas

Melt butter, cocoa powder, syrup and sugar gently in pan. When melted, add
crushed biscuits and sultanas, mix well. Then press into greased 7inch
square or round tin. Chill for at least an hour. Break chocolate into small
pieces and put, with ginger, into heatproof bowl. Place into pan of hot,
(but not boiling) water and stir until free-flowing. Carefully remove
biscuit base from tin and spread chocolate mix over. Chill for at least 30
mins.

That sounds so good I'm going to give it a try!
