Cake using far from rich dough (10)
I believe the answer is:
shortbread
'cake' is the definition.
(I know that shortbread is a type of cookie)
'far from rich dough' is the wordplay.
'far from rich' becomes 'short' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'dough' becomes 'bread' (bread dough is a kind of dough).
'short'+'bread'='SHORTBREAD'
'using' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for shortbread that I've seen before include "biscuits" , "Crumbly biscuit rich in butter" , "Brittle buttery cake" , "Biscuit with plenty of butter" , "sweet but easily crumbling" .)
