Procedure (detailed)

Preparation

You will need these things:

• 
  The ingredients. (Salt not shown here)
• 
  Cooking implements: beaters, large bowl, cup measurement and large cake tin. Scales optional.
• 
  An oven, of course!

Method

• 
  1. Preheat your oven.
• 
  2. Cream the butter and sugar together.
• 
  3. Crack the eggs in, and beat them in too
• 
  After beating in the eggs, it looks like this
• 
  4. Now get your flour and milk
• 
  5. Mix a little bit of flour in
• 
  6. Then a little bit of milk
• 
  Repeat 5 and 6 until done. By now the mixture will be very smooth
• 
  7. Pour the mixture into a greased and floured cake tin, then pop it in the oven
• 
  8. Checking if the cake is "done": put a sharp knife or skewer into the centre of the cake
• 
  If the knife is dirty - the mixture is still wet - put it back in! (This was after about 15 minutes, it takes a lot longer)
• 
  Finally, it's done! Notice how brown the top is, due to the high sugar content
