Ingredients


For the sponge cake:
  • 3 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup of caster sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup of self-raising flour
  • 1/3 cup of plain flour
  • 1/4 cup of butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons of milk


For the buttercream:
  • 1/2 cup of butter, at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup of icing sugar, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Instructions


To make the sponge cake:
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two 8-inch round cake tins.
  • In a large bowl, beat together the eggs, sugar and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
  • In a separate bowl, sift together the flours. Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and mix until combined.
  • Melt the butter and add it to the batter, along with the milk. Mix until combined.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared tins and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cakes comes out clean.
  • Remove the cakes from the oven and leave to cool in the tins for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.


To make the buttercream:
  • In a medium bowl, beat together the butter, icing sugar and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
  • Place one of the sponges onto a plate or cake stand. Spread the top with half of the buttercream. Place the other sponge on top.
  • Spread the top and sides of the cake with the remaining buttercream. Dust with icing sugar.
