200g butter, softened
200g caster sugar
4 eggs
200g Doves Farm Organic Self Raising White Flour
2 tbsp water
2 tsp vanilla extract
For the filling and topping:
6 tbsp raspberry jam
2 tsp icing sugar
1 Line two 20cm/8" round baking tins with parchment and pre-heat the oven.
2 Put the butter and sugar into a large bowl and beat together until light and fluffy.
3 Break the eggs into the bowl one at a time, beating well between each.
4 Sieve the flour into the bowl and mix it in.
5 Add the water and vanilla and stir to combine.
6 Divide the mixture between the prepared tins and smooth the tops.
