Instructions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease two 20 cm sandwich tins and line the bases with baking parchment.
  2. 2
    Beat the cannabutter and caster sugar together until pale and fluffy — about 4 minutes with an electric mixer.
  3. 3
    Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each. Add vanilla extract and mix to combine.
  4. 4
    Sift in self-raising flour and baking powder. Fold gently until just incorporated. Add milk and stir to a smooth, dropping consistency.
  5. 5
    Divide batter evenly between the two tins and smooth the tops.
  6. 6
    Bake 20–25 minutes until golden and the sponge springs back when lightly pressed. Cool in tins 5 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. 7
    Spread strawberry jam over the base layer, top with whipped double cream, sandwich with the second sponge, and dust with icing sugar.

Pro Tips

  • Do not open the oven during the first 20 minutes — the sponge will sink.
  • All ingredients should be at room temperature for the best rise.
  • Start with one slice. Wait at least 90 minutes before having more.
