Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F (160°C fan) and let it run for 20 minutes before making the batter.
Grease two 20cm / 8” cake pans with butter and line them with parchment paper. It's recommended to use pans without a loose base.

Notes

Ensure the baking powder is fresh for the best rise in your cake.
Using room temperature eggs helps achieve a smoother batter and fluffier cake.
Adjust the milk in the icing to reach your desired thickness.
