Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 180 °C/gas mark 4.

2. Tip all cake ingredients into large mixing bowl and beat for 2-3 minutes; mixture will drop easily off spoon.

3. Spoon mixture into tin and smooth with back of spoon. I use an oblong tin which measures 9" x 8", lined with baking parchment. You could also use a round tin.

4. Bake for 30-40 minutes until golden&firm to the touch.

5. Beat together icing ingredients and pour over the cake while it is still HOT. 6. Cool in tin&slice.
