Bible Cake ~ Lyn Barnett

This is my Auntie Nan’s recipe which was a typed insert in my
mother’s recipe book. I know it came from Auntie Nan (probably in
the 1950s) because she had very poor eyesight and was the only
person I knew with a portable typewriter. My mother met Auntie
Nan at the sewing bee during the war and our families became
close friends thereafter.

Bible references are from the Authorised Version.
