As promised, I will be posting recipes from food mentioned in Rosabelle by Linda Harrington here.

This week, to conincide with the release of Rosablle - in print and ebook - here is the recipe for Nana Rose’s 60th Birthday Chocolate Cake (as baked by Anna in Chapter Eleven):

Ingredients:

1 3/4 cups flour

1 1/2 cups sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

3 tablespoons cocoa

125gs melted butter

1 cup milk

1 teaspoon vanilla

3 eggs

Method:

• Line cake tin with baking paper

• Sift dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
