Berry ripple cake

 

Made with in-season berries, this moist cake is easy to whip up for any family occasion.

 

Ingredients

• 250g unsalted butter, softened
• 1 1/4 cups caster sugar
• 4 eggs
• 2 1/4 cups self-raising flour
• 1 cup milk
• 300g frozen or fresh mixed berries
• thick cream, to serve
• extra mixed berries, to serve

Method

1. Step 1
   Preheat oven to 160°C. Spray a 25cm fluted ring pan with oil spray.
2. Step 2
   Place the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer and beat until pale and creamy. Gradually add the eggs, one at a time, and beat well after each addition. Sift the flour over the butter mixture and fold through along with the milk.
3. Step 3
   Place the berries in a clean, dry bowl and mash with a fork. Fold into the cake mixture. Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan, smoothing the surface with a palate knife.
4. Step 4
   Bake for 1 hour or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Set aside in the pan to cool slightly before turning onto a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve with extra berries and thick cream. (taste.com.au)
