When I first made this bread many years ago, my husband said it looked and tasted like the bread he remembered having when he was growing up in Ireland. Over the years, I've made many loaves to serve to guests in our home and for church bazaars. I always receive compliments on it.

[email protected]I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bread didn't rise properly. It's still edible, but it's not as light and fluffy as it should be.

[email protected]This bread has a great flavor, but it's a bit too sweet for my taste. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
