Check out what my pals over at Group Recipes had to say about this recipe:
“This is a simple tea cake that is great with tea or coffee… it’s so light it can double as a shortcake with fruits…. I tried it with strawberries and it was wonderful….I got this recipe off the Internet several months ago and I’ve made it several times.”
Indeed, this Irish Tea Cake is very simple to make. It tastes light and fluffy, just as you’d imagine it would. I loved eating a slice of this cake with my favorite Earl Grey tea. Delish!
