Dear steemit friends,
My daughter loves baking cakes in her free time for her family and friends and here is the perfect recipe for a plain sponge cake that she makes, decorating it is optional. This one is decorated with fresh cream, strawberries & pineapple. ENJOY!!

ingredients

8 eggs
400g caster sugar
400g flour
400g butter

  1. preheat the oven to 200oc, gas6
  2. beat the eggs and put to one side
  3. whisk the butter and sugar together until smooth
  4. slowly add the eggs in
  5. do the same but with the flour
  6. and whisk until a fluffy mixture
  7. grease a baking tray with a little bit of butter (makes one 12 times 16, 2 8inch baking tins or 50 cupcakes).
  8. pour the mix in and put in the oven it should take 25 mins for a large tray bake and 12-15 mins for cupcakes. use a knife to check if they are cooked
