It's one of the simplest cakes I've ever made. You don't even need a mixer. Just mix all the ingredients in a bowl and that's it.
- 1
Preheat your oven to 170 degrees Celsius.
- 2
In a mixing bowl, cream together the soft butter and sugar until well incorporated.
- 3
Add the vanilla essence and gradually incorporate the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- 4
Once the eggs are fully incorporated, sift in the baking powder and cake flour. Mix until there are no lumps, using a spatula or whisk.
- 5
Line a baking tray with wet baking paper to help it sit better in the tray.
- 6
Pour the cake batter into the prepared baking tray, leveling it nicely with a spatula.
- 7
Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for about 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean.
- 8
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the tray for 30 minutes.
- 9
Once cooled, spread a layer of raspberry jam over the top of the cake.

Serve and enjoy!
