I went googling and found a rather good-looking site with loads of
recipes. Try looking at the following:

*Treacle Tart
http://www.recipesource.com/ethnic/europe/british/treacle-tart1.html

*Spotted Dick
http://www.recipesource.com/ethnic/europe/british/00/rec0010.html

*Yorkshire Pudding
http://www.recipesource.com/ethnic/europe/british/yorkshire-pudding1.html
http://www.recipesource.com/ethnic/europe/british/yorkshire-pudding2.html

*Chocolate Gateau
Not certain which of many types this might be, but my personal
favourite is "Black Forest Gateau"

HTH HAND and send me samples if you make any :-)
