Try our delicious Easter Surprise Vanilla Cake!
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (160 degrees fan-forced). Thoroughly grease and flour a 20cm wide metal mixing bowl.
Place all the ingredients in the bowl of an electric mixer and beat until pale in colour.
Pour the mixture into the prepared bowl and bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour or until golden and a skewer inserted comes out clean.
Allow to cool in the bowl for 10 minutes, then unmold and allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
To make the frosting, beat the Stork and cream cheese until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in the icing sugar and vanilla.
Slice the cake horizontally in half so that you have a flat 20cm base and a round, domed top.
Place an 8cm round template on the base ( a glass, cup or small bowl works well) and cut out so you have a doughnut shape.
Place the cake on a cake stand and fill the center with speckled Easter eggs.
Spread a layer of the frosting onto the speckled egg filled base and top with the dome.
