Beat in the eggs, a little at a time, and stir in the vanilla extract. 5. Fold in the flour using a large metal spoon, adding a little extra milk if necessary, to create a batter with a soft dropping consistency. 6. Divide the mixture between the cake tins and gently spread out with a spatula. 7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden-brown on top and a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Remove from the oven and set aside for 5 minutes, then remove from the tin and peel off the paper. Place onto a wire rack. 8. When cool sandwich the cakes together with jam, lemon curd or whipped cream and berries or just enjoy on its own. | |||||||||||||||||||
