Cooking Steps

• Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced. Grease and line a 25cm round baking tin with baking paper. • Measure 200g of butter and set aside at room temperature to soften. • Zest lemon, then slice into wedges.

• In a large bowl, place caster sugar and the softened butter. Beat with electric beaters until pale and fluffy, 3-5 minutes. • Add the eggs and beat until smooth, 1-2 minutes. • Using a wooden spoon, fold in basic sponge mix and the milk until just combined. • Pour cake batter into the lined cake tin. Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Set aside to cool completely in the tin.

TIP: To avoid clumps of butter in your mixture, allow your butter to soften to room temperature first! TIP: To check if the cake is done, stick a knife or skewer in the centre and it should come out clean.

• When the cake has 10 minutes remaining, to a second large bowl, add the cream cheese, lemon zest, a good squeeze of lemon juice and icing sugar (see ingredients). • Using electric beaters, beat, until well combined and smooth, 1-2 minutes. • Add thickened cream and beat, until soft peaks form and almost doubled in size, 3-4 minutes.

TIP: For maximum volume, chill both your bowl and cream before whipping.

• Once the cake has cooled, remove from tin and halve the cake horizontally. • Place bottom cake layer on a serving plate and spread with half the icing. Spoon over mixed berry compote, then sprinkle over half the 100s & 1000s. Top with the remaining cake layer and spread with remaining icing. Sprinkle over 100s & 1000s. • Slice and divide between plates to serve. Enjoy!
