Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180 (160 fan, gas mark 4)
Step 2
Cream the sugar and butter together until smooth.
Step 3
Next, the eggs. You're adding a lot of eggs, so you need to watch out for curdling. Add them one at a time with a tablespoon of the flour, mixing in between each egg and then add the vanilla.
Step 4
Slowly mix in the remaining flour until fully combined.
Step 5
Divide the mixture between two greased/lined 9 inch cake tins and smooth until even.
Step 6
Bake for 30-35 mins or until a knife comes out clean.
Step 7
While the cakes cool, whip the double cream until it can hold peaks.
Step 8
When completely cool, spread the jam on the underside of one cake and cream on the underside of the other.
Step 9
Carefully place the jam covered cake onto the cream covered one.
Step 10
Dust the icing sugar over the top and serve!
