Day 6 of Blogging Marathon#4 by Srivalli and i was suddenly short of some snack recipes which my daughter loves.....for a change she wanted some sweet and i thought i will bake a tea cake. I baked this wonderful cake from Aparna's blog for my daughter and my brother. It is his Birthday today and he does not eat eggs!!!.He loves the fruit salad with custard and i thought he might like this as well!!!! So this was the perfect birthday cake for him.....

INGREDIENTS
All purpose flour 1 1/2 cup
Custard powder(corn starch) Vanilla Flavored 3/4 cup
Butter 150 gms
Sugar (granulated) 3/4 cup
Milk 1 cup
Baking powder 2 1/4 tsp
Vanilla extract 1 1/2 tsp if using corn starch
PREPARATION

In a big bowl mix the all purpose flour, custard powder, sugar and baking powder together.Add the Milk and the butter and beat well.
Pour the batter in a greased, floured 8" cake tin and bake for 45 minutes or till the skewer comes out clean when pricked at the center
Cool on a rack and serve
VERDICT
Best snack cake with a wonderful refreshing yellow colour and a great taste and a wonderful texture too

Thank you APARNA.My family loved this as it was quite a light cake without any icing:-)
KISHORE THIS IS FOR YOU.........HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
