Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

  3. Add the egg and mix well to combine.

  4. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice, and salt.

  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.

  6. If the dough is too dry, add milk, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together.

  7. Gently fold in the currants or raisins until evenly distributed.

  8. On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thick. Using a cookie cutter or a glass, cut out round shapes from the dough.

  9. Place the cut-out dough rounds onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes or until lightly golden.

  10. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack.

  11. Once cool, dust the soul cakes with powdered sugar for a spooky finish.
