Not so much a redaction as some general comments about the recipe and
some opinions which really need to be tested.

The ingredients and instructions are very cookie-like, and I think the
end result will be a small spice cake 2 to 3 inches in diameter and 1/4
to 1/2 an inch thick with a crumbly texture.  Cake, in this case, I am
taking to mean a round, flat loaf.

I'm going to try a batch of these for a Christmas party this weekend
using butter rather than clotted cream, so we'll have some trials to
compare.
