Quick and easy sponge cake instructions

  1. Preheat oven to gas mark 4/180c/350f (with some ovens a higher temperature can be used- mine is a very temperamental old gas oven that likes to burn things if not watched carefully hence the lower temperature!).
  2. Beat the margerine and sugar together until smooth. You can soften the margerine/butter first but dont melt it!.
  3. Add one of the eggs and half the flour and beat again until smooth. Then repeat with the other egg and the rest of the flour..
  4. If you're in a rush, you can just stick both eggs and all the flour in at once. If you're really pushed for time you can put all the ingredients in and beat it together but this will take work to stop lumps!.
  5. If making one big cake then pop the mix in greased sandwich tins and into the oven for 15-20 mins depending on your oven..
  6. This mix is also good for cupcakes and fairy cakes, these will probably only take about 10 mins to cook..
