Instructions
- So simple...put all the ingredients into a large bowl and mix until combined. How easy is that!!!!!!
- Pour into a prepared 23cm round tin . I use a tin with a removable base and I just spray before adding the batter.
- Bake for an hour to an hour and a quarter at 180 degrees. I use fan bake.
- Check with a skewer to make sure it comes out cleanly.
- Cool in tin on a wire rack
- Ice cake when completely cool.
- Beat butter and the cream cheese with an electric beater until smooth and creamy . Add the remaining ingredients and beat again until smooth...this takes a few minutes.
- Spread generously over the cake and decorate the top with the passionfruit pulp
Notes
- This cake needs to be served on a plate with a fork
