1/2 cup butter
3 eggs
1 1/4 cups self-rising flour*
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
icing sugar to dust

Directions

1

Preheat the oven to 350° fahrenheit.

Butter, or spray with cooking spray, a 9-inch cake pan.

Using a hand-mixer or stand-mixer, combine slight-softened butter and sugar together.
4

Add eggs, one by one, mixing in-between.
5

Add vanilla.
6

Mix in flour or flour mixture.

Pour batter into pan and bake for 35 minutes until golden, checking at 30 minutes with a toothpick. As the batter is rather thick the centre will cook very slowly. Do not be afraid to bake more than you think is necessary.
