Utensils Used
| 1. Pre-heat oven to 180C/350F/gas 4. | 2. Grease and line with baking parchment, three 7" or 8" round Victoria sandwich tins. | 3. Cream the butter, vanilla extract and sugar together until pale and fluffy - this is very important, it captures air and keeps the cake light and moist! | 4. Add the beaten eggs gradually, mixing well each time. Lightly sieve in the flour - again gradually - and then add enough milk to make the cake mixture a dropping consistency. | 5. Divide the mixture between the three cake tins - giving them a gentle shake to level them, and bake in the pre-heated oven for about 25 - 30 minutes, or until well risen and a pale golden brown. Turn the cakes out and leave to cool on a wire rack. | 6. Whip the cream until thick and holding soft peaks and add the vanilla extract if using. | 7. Sandwich the cakes together with the cream and sliced strawberries - reserving at least 8 for the top of the cake. | 8. Place the cake on an atractive cake or gateau serving platter/stand and sprinkle the icing sugar over the top of the cake. | 9. Decorate with the reserved whole strawberries. | 10. N.B. you can also decorate the top of the cake with the whipped cream - but this is not traditional! | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
