Cacen Ddyrnu Welsh Threshing Cake Recipes
WELSH CAKES
We attended a county fair in Wales and the ladies of the local church were baking and selling these. We asked for the recipe and they graciously shared it with us. This has been converted to US standard. They are delicious and not as sweet as some of our style cookies. Dried currants can be used in place of the raisins.

Steps:
- Sift flour, baking powder and salt into bowl. Put in butter and lard and mix until resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in sugar and currants or raisins. Beat the eggs lightly and add to flour mixture with just enough milk to make a firm dough similar to shortcrust pastry.
- Chill dough 1 to 2 hours.
- Roll the dough to 1/4 inch on floured surface and cut with 3 inch rounds. Bake the cakes on a greased griddle or frying pan (I use my electric skillet with just a little non-stick spray) over low heat until golden brown. Cool and sprinkle with sugar. These also freeze well.

CACEN GNEIFO (WELSH SHEARING CAKE)
From an old Welsh cake recipe collection, purchased in Wales in 1992. "Sheep shearing time was, and still is, one of the major social occasions in Welsh rural life, for in the difficult hill districts especially farmers help each other with the rounding-up and shearing of their enormous flocks of sheep on a rota basis. The host farm kitchen is busy for days beforehand preparing pies and tarts and cakes and baked meats ready to feed the shearers. This cake, with its caraway seed flavour, is traditional to the shearing time."

WELSH CAKES
This recipe is from Chatelaine's Heritage Collection of Recipes, published in 1968. I didn't have any mixed peel but they are really good with just currants. Fried them on an electric griddle. Had to increase the temperature to 300F as the heat varies considerably across the griddle top. They are seriously addictive!!!!

Steps:
- Sift dry ingredients together in a bowl and cut in shortening finely. Add fruit, then eggs mixed with milk to make a stiff dough. (I ended up using my hands to get it to combine.)
- Roll to 1/4-inch thickness on a floured surface. (It is more convenient to roll out half the dough at a time.) Cut out rounds with a sharp two-inch cookie cutter.
- Bake on a heated griddle on low heat, or an electric fry pan set at 250F for 8 to 10 minutes. When golden brown on one side, turn and bake second side until golden.
- Serve hot with butter as a tea cake or serve cold. Store in a covered container.
- NOTE: Shortening is satisfactory in this recipe but butter or hard margarine gives a richer flavour and colour. (I used hard margarine.) I estimated two as a serving. (Don't think you'll stop with two!).
- Makes about 4 1/2 dozen.

CACEN DDYRNU (WELSH THRESHING CAKE)
From an old Welsh cake recipe collection, purchased in Wales in 1992. "Like harvest and sheep-shearing, threshing time was an occasion for feeding a hungry number of workers, and this is the cake traditionally made for it. Note the use of bacon dripping, often used in cake-making im Wales in the old days, for there was always plenty of it with bacon the most usual meat. You can of course substitute lard or vegetable fat if you wish, but the bacon fat does impart a distinctive flavour to the cake."
