Ingredients
Cake
- 225 grams butter
- 225 grams sugar
- 3 egg
- 90 ml milk
- 340 grams flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 3 teaspoon cocoa powder
- 3 drops red food colouring
Buttercream icing
- 175 grams butter
- 3 cups icing sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
Cake
- Beat butter and sugar till white.
- Beat eggs, then beat with butter and sugar mixture.
- Add milk and vanilla essence.
- Sift the flour and baking powder and mix in quickly and lightly, not beating.
- Divide mixture into three parts. Leave one plain. Mix cocoa into one. And colour the other part.
- Cook each part separately in a hot oven for 12 minutes. I've used a ring tin. If using a round tin, you may need to cook a little longer.
- When cold, join parts with jam, ice and decorate.
Buttercream Icing
- Beat butter until white, then gradually add icing sugar and milk.
