Simple, old-fashioned and delicious – this custard pound cake takes less than 10 minutes to whip up in the mixer. Serve simply dusted with icing sugar.

Ingredients

• 1 cup caster sugar
• 1/4 cup custard powder
• 4 eggs
• 200g butter
• 1 1/2 cups plain flour
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
• Icing sugar, to dust

Direction:

1. Preheat oven to 170C. Grease and line the base and sides of a 20cm cake tin.
2. In a stand mixer, or using hand-held beaters, mix caster sugar, custard powder and eggs for 3 minutes until pale. Melt butter in a saucepan until hot. With the mixer running, pour into mixture and beat until combined. Fold through flour and baking powder. Pour into prepared tin and bake for 50-55 minutes until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
