Tea Cake

Ingredients:
1kg All purpose flour (Maida)
16-18 Eggs
1-1.25 kg Sugar
1kg unsalted butter
1 tsp Vanilla essence
2-3 tsp Baking powder (as per manufacturer's instructions)

Method:
1.Beat together Eggs, butter, essence and sugar.
2.Continue beating/mixing while adding to it little by little Maida + baking powder mix until all of flour is mixed up.
3.Grease a pan with oil or butter and pour the batter into it to only half its height.
4.Bake it in an oven at 180 degree Celsius for 30-35 minutes.
5.Take out the pan and take a clean knife poke right through the center of the cake and pull it out - if it comes out clean then the cake is completely baked otherwise put it back and bake for 5 more minutes or so... (use your judgement here ;-) )
6.Once baked fully, take out the pan from the oven and keep it aside to cool. Then keep a plate on top, invert the pan to get the cake out after cooled. ;) Voila your tea cake is ready.

Variation:
To the above if you can add:
1.Any food color to get a different cake
2.Cocoa to get chocolate cake
3.Plums, raisins, dry fruits and caramel mix to get Christmas cake ;)
