Eh, I'll resubmit my Granddad's cake recipe. I can always use another ten million... 
Cake mix:
170g Self-Raising flour
2.5ml Baking powder
2.5ml salt
142g Caster sugar
113g Soft butter
2 Eggs
56g Crushed nuts
225 ml Sour cream
15ml shot double-strength espresso.
Icing:
cocoa powder to taste
100g butter
300g icing sugar
8ml vanilla essence
I assume you know how to mix up cake batter and bake it properly. My granddad always eyeballed it. Still, his method as I remember it:
Beat together the sugar and the butter until you reach a smooth consistency.
Add the self-raising flour and baking powder, mix until smooth
Add the eggs and sour cream together, mix until smooth
Add the salt, crushed nuts and shot of espresso, and mix until you have an even, moist consistency. If it seems too runny, incrementally more flour until you have the right consistency. Remember that it should drop easily off the spoon, however.
Pour into a greased 20cm deep circular baking tin, bake for 40 minutes at 170 degrees centigrade, or until a skewer comes out clean. When it's finished, take it out of the tin and leave it to cool on a wire rack. Once cool, cut into two even halves.
Alternatively (and this was the method I preferred) bake it in two 10cm tins instead. That way you don't have to worry about getting your cut even, and it doesn't take quite as long to bake.
Icing :
Beat the butter until soft, then mix it with the sugar until you have a smooth, even mix. Add the vanilla extract and cocoa powder to taste. If it seems too soft, add more sugar. Once the cake body's cool, spread a layer of icing between the two halves, spread as much of the rest as you like on top. Then eat the remainder. Decorate with chocolate chips or nuts, or even both. your choice.
Oh, yeah. I'm not sure which measuring system you use, so here's the recipe converted into the alternatives:
Cake mix:
Self-Raising flour : 6 ounces or 3/4 cup
Baking powder : 1/2 teaspoon
salt : 1/2 teaspoon
Caster sugar : 5 ounces or 2/3 cup
Soft butter : 4 ounces or 1/2 cup
2 Eggs
Crushed nuts: 2 ounces or 1/4 cup
Sour cream: 8 ounces or 1 cup
double-strength espresso: 1 tablespoon
Icing:
butter : 3 1/2 ounces or 1/3 cup
icing sugar : 9 ounces
vanilla essence : 1 teaspoon
oven temperature: 375 Fahrenheit.

Just to have it all in one place:
Tree Cake
Also known as the "King of Cakes", traditionally baked on a spit (though the recipe has been modified for a springform, for simplicities sake), is a must have on the list of your available cakes. The name stems from the fact that - baked around a spit - each layer of the cake is divided from the next by a golden line, thus resembling the rings on a crosscut tree.
Ingredients:
2 sticks butter
3/4 cup sugar
8 eggs (separated)
2 tbsp rum
grated lemon rind
1 pinch salt
1/3 cup minced almonds
1 cup plus 2 tbsp flour mixed with
1 cup plus 2 tbsp starch
1/2 cup apricot jam, melted
almond paste, powdered sugar, or chocolate icing (optional)
Whip butter and sugar well until creamy. Gradually add egg yolks and the remaining ingredients to the butter-sugar mixture until a light, foamy batter forms. Beat egg whites until very stiff and stir gently into the batter.
Pour about 2 tablespoons batter (a thin covering) into a 8-1/2" springform pan greased with butter. On the uppermost oven rack, bake (or broil!) in a preheated oven at 450¦ F for 2 minutes or until golden brown. Watch carefully, this browning can take place very quickly. Repeat until all the batter is gone -- you should have about 14 to 16 layers.
When the cake is done, let it stand a few minutes before running a sharp knife along the sides of the pan. Remove the cake from the pan and glaze with melted apricot jam. Once the jam is set, you can add an additional glaze of thinned almond paste or immediately finish the cake with a thin icing made from powered sugar or the highest quality chocolate available.
If you have a spit to bake it on available, go for it!

Bloody Finger Cookies
For some reason Spyra just giggles everytime I make these things *shrug*
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup confectionerÆs sugar
1 Egg
1 tsp almond extract
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 2/3 cup flour
1 tsp banking powder
1 tsp salt
3/4 cup almonds, whole blanched
1 tube red decorator gel
Cream the butter butter powdered sugar. Mix in egg, and extracts until creamy. Sift and add the dry ingredients. Blend to make a soft dough. Wrap and refrigerate dough until it is easy to work with (about 15-20 minutes). Roll into a finger shapes about 3ö long and +ö thick (They will rise when baked so make them smaller than you'd like the finished finger to be.) Place finger on lined cookie sheet. Using a butter knife lightly press a flat nail bed shape at the end of the finger and cut 3 lines in the middle of the finger to form knuckles. Bake at 325 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 3-5 minutes. Put a bit of red gel in the nail bed and press the almond fingernails into the end of the finger.

NanoHACs and Recons will hate you. Anything larger and slower will think you're just as bad as a NanoHAC/Recon.
It's a disaster.
Am I doing this right?

Valklear Provision
(I don't know wether or not the Valklear really use this recipe, it's what my Father calls it)
5 eggs
A bit of salt
2 teaspoons hot water
100g foamy honey (stir it, quite a lot)
200g ground hazelnuts
Mix everything, prepare the cake tin and put the dough into it, bake at 180 degrees ((Celsius, of course, I suppose we're all metric by now)) for approx. 60 minutes.
Goes very well with dried meat, fresh spring water as well as tasty herb tea. Ask your local Shaman about that. You might want to add chopped dried fruit to the recipe in case you're not going to wage war but have a picnic. Other nuts work well, too. Guaranteed to fill the stomach of a starving warrior in a matter of seconds.

No-bake lemony cake!
Ingredients:
tub of Double cream (suitable for whipping) (about 150g)
1/2 can of Condensed milk (Nestle Carnation) (about 200g)
Juice of 4 lemons
Some biscuits (8 McVities Hob-Nobs)
Some butter (50 grams?)
Crush the biscuits, and melt enough butter to make a sticky mixture.
Line the bottom of a cake tin with the biscuit mix, and squash it down to make it hard.
Mix the double cream and condensed milk together, then add the lemon juice. Keep stirring until it stiffens. Spread that on the top of the biscuit mix in the tin.
Chill for 2-3 hours in a fridge.
Enjoy!
Could also use Limes, or maybe oranges!
If you replace the double cream with cream cheese, you can make a no-bake cheesecake \o/

Something Dav cooked for me once:
The Happy Heart Attack
Sponge:
- 125g butter
- 225g dark soft brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 142ml soured cream
- 175g plain flour
- 5ml baking powder
- 2.5ml bicarbonate of soda
- 50g cocoa
Filling:
- 80 ml cocoa
- 250 g butter
- 300 g icing sugar, sieved
- Vanilla essence
Icing:
- 200 g bar of the richest dark chocolate you can find
- 40 ml cocoa
- 142 ml double cream
- Two 20 cm (8-inch), shallow cake tins, greased and base-lined
For the cake, cream together the butter and sugar until the mixture is light in colour anti texture. Gradually beat in the eggs, and then the soured cream (the mixture looks curdled and disgusting at this stage). Sieve together the dry ingredients and fold them into the mixture. Divide the mixture equally between the tins. Bake at 190¦C for 30 û 35 minutes, until cooked. If it catches fire, extinguish and start again. It doesn't taste good if you reuse bits.
Turn out on to a wire tray to cool.
Make the filling by mixing the cocoa with 40 ml of boiling water to a smooth paste, allow to cool. Beat together the butter, sieved icing sugar and essence, until light and fluffy. Try to keep your hair out of the buttercream. Beat in the cocoa. Slice the cake in half and then sandwich the halves together with the filling, then repeat so you have three layers of icing. Be careful with the knife when slicing and try not to bleed in the cake.
For the frosting, melt the chocolate carefully. Make the cocoa into a paste with water as before and mix with the chocolate. Slowly whisk the cream into the chocolate until smooth and thickened. Spread the frosting evenly but thickly over the cake with a palette knife or archaeologist's trowel.
Serve in slices, with whipped cream or ice-cream, or marscapone cheese if you really want your guests incapacitated. If possible warm each slice, if you have made the cake in advance; it makes it more orgasmic to eat.
WARNING: Giving this cake to someone else may cause sex.

If that's so, why did you even bother to tell her in public? Any mail would do.
Also, asking 10 million ISK for a set of recipes is... tasteless. Even if they are your family's. ESPECIALLY when the first price for the best recipy is exactly 10 million, what would be the point in handing that out if she had to pay you?
If I could get time to return home to Intaki Prime anytime soon I'd go look for our own family recipe-book. I'd hand over a few for free, JUST like anyone else would, in the spirit of kindness and contest.
