This recipe is great and you can make all different variations! Leave the cocoa powder out of the Chocolate recipe and add a dash of vanilla extract for a plain angel cake. You can also add some grated lemon rind, and it works with choc chips, smarties, or fruit depending on what sort of cake you want to make. I've also included the cupcake recipe. One of my faves is plain cupcakes, cut in half and fill with a dollop of streamline jam and a squirt of Anchor light cream . Perfect with a cup of tea! :-). Economy/value eggs are fine as you're only using the whites and will save a lot of money!
