Ingredients

Scale

  • 4 medium eggs
  • 250 g self-raising flour
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • Zest of 1 orange

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 180℃ (160℃ for fan ovens) and line an 8×10-inch baking tin with baking paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the softened butter and caster sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the vanilla extract.
