With money casually head for fried cake (8)
I believe the answer is:
doughnut
'fried cake' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'with money casually head' is the wordplay.
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'money' becomes 'dough' (dough is a kind of money).
'casually head' becomes 'nut' (informal term for somebody's head. I am not sure about the 'casually' bit.).
'dough' next to 'nut' is 'DOUGHNUT'.
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for doughnut that I've seen before include "Jam-filled cake" , "Sweet circular snack" , "Small ring-shaped fried cake" , "Ring-shaped object" , "Small fried cake with hole in middle" .)
