Ingredients
- Cake
- 200g Butter
- 200g Caster Sugar
- 200g Self Raising Flour
- 25g Cocoa Powder
- 2 Eggs
- A Splash of Milk
- A few drops of Vanilla extract/essence
- Icing
- 25g icing
- A few drops of water
Instructions
- I greased a 9 inch wide and 4 cm deep round tin (use a cake tin to your preferance). Preheat the Oven to Gas Mark 4/180 for electrical /160 for electrical with a fan
- Use a large bowl to weigh out the butter and sugar
- Weigh out the flour and the cocoa powder in another bowl and mix together until well incorperated
- Break the eggs into a cup/bowl, whisk for a little then add the milk, whisk some more, add the vanilla extract/essence and whisk for the last time (You can use a fork)
- Cream the butter and sugar (I used an electrical whisk) then add 3/4 of the cocoa/flour mix. Whisk that in until a darkish brown colour remains.
- Add the Egg/Milk/Vanilla mix and whisk into the batter
- Add the remaining Cocoa/flour mix and whisk well
- Slip the cake mix into the greased tin and cook in the oven for 30- 40 minutes
- Once the cake has cooked leave it to cool in the tin for at least 15 - 20 minutes then put it onto a cooling tray to completely cool
- Now for the icing, Add the icing to a clean bowl, then add the water a bit at a time until it is not to stiff but not too runny. Then drizzle the icing over the cake and enjoy!
