Preheat oven to 170C • Cream butter and sugar until light and creamy. • Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition until mixture is light and fluffy. • Add vanilla essence. • Fold in sifted flour gradually to mix. • Finally stir in milk. Mix until well combined. • Turn out mixture into prepared tin. • Level out mixture at the sides but allow a shallow well in the center. This is to enable the cake to level up evenly during baking. • Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes or until cooked through when tested with a skewer.
