This is my version of the CWA cake for this year. Their recipe has vanilla in it and if you want to cook it for me for the cooking day you can get the correct one from the CWA of NSW web page.
I like this recipe best. Always delicious and always turns out and always get lots of favourably comments.
Preparation time 30 mins. Cooking 50 mins
1 medium orange whole
200 grams butter melted
3 eggs lightly beaten
1 cup of caster sugar
11/2 cups of SR Flour sifter
METHOD:
Preheat oven to moderate 180 degreeC/160 fan forced
Grease a deep 20 cm tin and line the base with baking paper.
Was and dry the orange and cut into quarters and remove the seeds.
Process in a small food processor until it becomes pulpy.
Transfer orange to medium bowl and stir in sugar, egg, flour and melted butter
Pour into prepared tin and and bake for 50 mins or until cooked.
This cake is also nice when you make as patty cakes.
I sometimes ice it with orange butter icing or just sprinkle it with icing sugar before serving.
When I was working I served them for breakfast as orange muffins. The Doctors in the Urology at St George loved them.

I only use half the sugar in this recipe or maybe 11/2 cups of sugar. 2 cups seems so much and they work fine with just the 1 cup.
2 cups of rolled oats
11/2 (half) cups coconut
2 cups of plain flour
3 teasp bicarbonate soda
5 tabsp boiling water
2 cup of sugar
2 tabsp golden syrup
250g butter
Combined rolled oats, sifted flour, sugar and coconut in bowl
Combine butter and golden syrup in saucepan stir over heat until the butter is melted.
Mix soda with boiling water and add to melted butter mixture.
Stir into dry ingredients
Roll teasp of mixture onto baking paper lined trays and flatten with fork. Allow room for spreading
Bake in slow oven for 20 minutes until golden and cool on tray.
Mixture makes about 6 doz.
Warning:
Be careful when adding soda and water to butter as it froths up everywhere and makes a bit mess. After the first mess I learnt to do it over the basin of dry ingredients.
