Aunty Joans Cob Loaf


Anyone stuck for something delicious to take to a dinner party for nibbles or to serve at home for a quick lunch? I can't take the credit for this wonderful cob loaf as it is from my Auntys collection of recipes but I know she would be delighted to pass it on to all you celebrated cooks out there.
