Sorry about the omission.

G'day Rhonda. Sorry about missing out the temperature. Bake in a hot oven for 15 minutes for the strawberry shortcake. These recipes are taken from a cookbook I have, which has a section of eggless recipes included. They are not regular recipes that have the eggs taken out. No Rhonda, it is not too much trouble, my mum was alergic to oranges, so I know just how frustrating this sort of thing can be, not only for the person who has to suffer this way, but also the family, seeing them. I used to feel so very helpless. Here are three more.

CHEESE BUBBLE BREAD
These are crisp, wafer-thin biscuits (cookies)

Preheat oven to 350*F (180*C)

Ingredients
1 1/2 cups self-raising flour
good pinch salt
good pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
1 heaped tablespoon butter
2 heaped tablespoons tasty, grated cheese
Water or milk to mix

Method
Rub butter and cheese into the sifted flour, salt and cayenne pepper. Mix to a stiff dough with the cold water or milk. Knead very thoroughly for extra puffiness. Roll out very thin (almost like paper) on a floured board. Cut into oblongs or triangles, prick all over with fork, and bake in a moderate oven for about 10 minutes, till crisp and pale brown. Store in airtight containers.
