Ingredients:

150 g. plain flour (sifted)

1 1/2 tsp. baking powder (sifted)

2 tbsp. custard powder (sifted)

100 g. castor sugar

125 g. salted butter (softened)

2 eggs

1 tsp. vanilla essence

1/2 cup milk

Methods:

1. In a  mixing bowl of a stand mixer, combine plain flour, baking powder, custard powder and castor sugar.
2. Then add butter, eggs, vanilla essence and milk.  Mix everything together until smooth and well combined.
3. Pour the batter into a 7" lined cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
4. Bake in a preheated oven of 160 degree Celsius for about 50-60 minutes (depending on individual oven) or when a skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
5. Remove from oven and cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
