Vegan Victoria Sponge Cake<\/div>\t
2016-06-03 12:05:38<\/div>\t\t
I didn't have to work on Victoria Day so I thought I'd celebrate by making something tasty to celebrate. I tried many recipes many times and finally (4 or 5 pounds later...) found a combination that worked perfectly! <\/div>\t

    \t\t\t
    Filling<\/div>\t\t\t
      \t\t\t\t
    1. 1 Cup icing sugar (set aside a Tablespoon or two of it for dusting)<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    2. 1\/2 Cup dairy-free margarine<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    3. 1\/2 fresh raspberries<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    4. 4-5\ttablespoons raspberry jam<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    5. Garnish<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    6. icing sugar, to dust<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    7. a handful of fresh raspberries<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    8. a sprinkle of lemon zest<\/li>\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>\t\t
      \t\t\t
      Instructions<\/div>\t\t\t
        \t\t\t\t
      1. Preheat the oven to 190\u00baC\/375\u00baF<\/li>\t\t\t\t
      2. In a large bowl, beat the caster sugar, margarine, vanilla and lemon zest until creamy. Add all other cake ingredients and beat until smooth.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
      3. Pour the cake mixture into a baking pan and bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown on top and a skewer comes out clean when poked in the centre.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
      4. Remove from the oven and allow the cake to cool completely before removing from the tin.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
      5. While the cake is cooling, sift the icing sugar into a large bowl. Add the margarine and beat until smooth. If it\u2019s a little thick, add a splash of non-dairy milk to loosen it.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
      6. Once cooled, place one of the sponges on a plate or cake stand.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
      7. Carefully spread the butter icing on top and scatter over most of the raspberries.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
      8. Spread the jam onto the second cake and place, jam side down, on top of the iced sponge, pressing down slightly.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
      9. Dust the top of the cake with a little icing sugar and decorate with a few raspberries and a pinch of lemon zest.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
      10. Enjoy!<\/li>\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>\t\t
