Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C, 160°C fan oven, Gas mark 4.
- Sieve the flour and baking powder into a large bowl. Add the sugar, vanilla extract, eggs and Stork and mix with a wooden spoon quickly to make a thick batter. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared tin.
- Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 25-35 minutes until golden brown. Leave the cake to cool on the baking sheet.
- While the cake is in the oven, make the custard cream: Heat the milk to a simmer. Mix the custard powder in a bowl with the sugar, egg and 4 tablespoons of warm milk. Pour the mixture into the hot milk, stirring constantly, bring the custard to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes on a low heat. Stir regularly. Allow the custard to cool while stirring occasionally to prevent a skin forming on the top.
- Meanwhile clean the strawberries and halve them.
- Whip the cream until stiff. Fold the whipped cream into the cold custard (if the custard is warm or hot, the cream will melt, making the cream too thin!).
- Spread the custard cream evenly over the cake.
- Spoon the strawberries on it, dust the cake with icing sugar and cut into 8-10 slices.
