Instructions to make Easter Simnel Cake:
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees C, to toast the almonds. spread them out on a baking sheet and toast them for exactly 8 to 10 minutes. remove from oven and reduce oven temperature to 150 degrees C. when almonds are cooled to room temp, chop them coarsely..
- Unwrap the marzipan, cut the block into two equal halves and re-wrap one half for later use. chop the remaining half into 1/2 inch cubes. toss them in 1 tablespoon of the flour and set aside..
- In a large mixing bowl, sift the flour, baking powder and spice. then place all the remaining ingredients, except the remaining marzipan, egg yolk and red currant jelly, into the bowl and mix well (using either an electric mixer or a wooden spoon) till the batter is evenly distributed..
- Finally, gently fold in the marzipan cubes and any excess flour..
- Spoon the mixture into a prepared 8 inch cake tin, leveling the surface with the back of a spatula. place a suitably sized square of double greaseproof paper with a hole the size of a 50p piece in the center over the top..
- Place the cake in the center of the oven and bake for two and three-quaters to three and a quarter hours at 150 degrees C. the cake is cooked when the center feels springy when lightly pressed..
- Cool the cake in the tin for 30 minutes, then transfer onto a wire rack to cool completely..
- To decorate the cake, unwrap the remaining marzipan and divide into two halves. roll out one half into a 9 inch circle. brush the top of the cake with the red currant jelly (or raspberry jam) and place the circle of marzipan concentrically over the cake..
- Trim the excess overhangs, or make a decorative fluted pattern as shown in the pics..
- Divide the final portion of marzipan into eleven and shape into spheres. place them equidistant from each other along the circumference of the cake top..
- Brush the marzipan with the egg yolk, and place under a preheated grill (which has been heating for a good 10 minutes so it is at full blast) for about 30 to 40 seconds. the marzipan should turn a light, toasted brown color..
- Remove from the oven, and serve..
