Marmalade cake

1 cake

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
8 ounces Flour; self-rising
2 Eggs; beaten
3 ounces Caster sugar
4 ounces Margarine
1 drop Vanilla essence
2 tablespoons Orange marmalade
1 teaspoon Orange rind; finely grated
2 tablespoons Milk
pinch Salt

Directions

Set oven to 350øF or Mark 4. Grease a 6 inch round cake tin. Sift the flour and salt into a bowl. Rub in the margarine until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the sugar and half the orange rind and then add the eggs, marmalade, milk and vanilla essence. Mix well together to the consistency of a thick batter. Transfer to the tin and bake in the centre of the oven for approximately 1 hour 20 minutes until golden in colour or until a skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean. Sprinkle the remaining orange rind over the top. Leave in the tin for a few minutes before turning out on to a wire rack to cool.
