I suggest ditching the oil and doubling the eggs - the original recipe we found way too oily, and more pudding texture than cake. A second go without the added oil and using two eggs (we halved the entire recipe) was perfect :)

Delicious! The recipe desperately needs an amendment to Step 5: Spread the batter into TWO prepared cake tins.
