Ingredients

Traybake cake

  • 250 g Softened butter
  • 250 g Caster sugar
  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 4 Medium Eggs
  • 250 g Self-raising flour
  • 3 Tablespoons Milk
  • Zest of 1 Orange

Topping

  • 200 g Icing sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons Freshly squeezed orange juice
  • 1-2 Tablespoons Orange zest

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 180℃ (160℃ for fan ovens) and line an 8x10-inch tin with baking paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy then stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Whisk in the eggs, flour and milk, a little bit at a time, until you have a smooth cake batter. Then stir in the orange zest.
  • Transfer the batter to your lined tin and spread it out evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool in the tin for around 10 minutes then flip it out onto a wire rack and leave to cool completely.

Topping

  • Mix the icing sugar and orange juice together to make a smooth, thick icing. Spread it over the cooled cake and top with the extra orange zest.
  • Leave the cake to sit out at room temperature until the icing is hard then cut it into slices and enjoy!
