Baking Directions For An Easter Cake
Preheat the oven to gas mark 6 or 200C.
Sift the flour, sugar, cocoa and the baking powder into a large bowl.
Mix the butter, eggs, vanilla essence and milk together and stir this into the flour mixture. Beat until a smooth consistency is obtained.
Place paper cake cases on a baking tin and spoon in the mixture into the paper cases.
Bake for 20 minutes or until each Easter cake rises.
