Ingredients

For the sponge cake, you will need: 4 large eggs, 150g of caster sugar, 150g of self-raising flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 150g of butter (melted and cooled), and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.

For the passionfruit icing, you will need: 100g of icing sugar, 2 tablespoons of passionfruit pulp, 2 tablespoons of butter (melted and cooled), and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Instructions

Start by preheating your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line a 20cm (8-inch) round cake tin with baking parchment.

In a large bowl, add the caster sugar and eggs and whisk together until the mixture is pale and creamy. Sift in the self-raising flour and baking powder and stir until combined. Slowly pour in the melted butter and vanilla extract and whisk until the batter is smooth.

Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Leave the cake to cool for 10 minutes in the tin before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

In a small bowl, combine the icing sugar, passionfruit pulp, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth. Spread the icing over the cooled cake, using a palette knife. Decorate with extra passionfruit pulp, if desired.
