Quick, easy recipes:

Vanilla Cake

1 1/2 cups SR flour
125g softened butter
3/4 cup caster sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla essence

Method:
Preheat oven to 180c. Grease and line 22cm pan with baking paper.

Put butter, sugar and essence in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, until mixed well. Add half of the flour and milk and stir with spoon until combined, and remainder flour and milk and mix well.

Pour mixture into pan and bake in oven until cake is cooked (about 30mins).

(EASY PEASY!! I made a butterscotch icing on top - just stuck brown sugar in my normal vanilla icing)
