Recipe Notes
Note: This cake will sink after being removed from the oven as there is no flour to maintain the rise. When ready to serve, fill the middle of the cake (where it sank) with a delicious icing or freshly whipped cream and a sea of beautiful fresh berries. Divine!
Optional For a delicious Cream Cheese Icing beat 60g soft cream cheese, 30g soft butter and 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract until pale. Gradually add 3/4 cup icing sugar beating until combined.
