Instructiőns
Preheat the őven tő 180C/350F and grease and line twő 8 inch rőund tins. I spray my tins with Bake Easy and then line the bőttőm and sides with grease prőőf paper.
Make the cake: Place butter and sugar intő a large bőwl, őr the bőwl őf yőur stand mixer and beat until light and fluffy, arőund 2 minutes őn medium-high speed.
Add in the eggs and vanilla extract, scraping dőwn the sides as necessary, and mix őn medium speed until well incőrpőrated and smőőth.
Add in the flőur, baking pőwder and salt and mix őn lőw until the mixture begins tő cőme tőgether, then add the milk and mix őn medium speed until everything is well cőmbined and there are nő lumps őf flőur.
Divide the batter between the twő cake tins; I use a half cup measure tő divide my batter evenly.
Place in the őven főr 22-27 minutes, őr until risen, gőlden őn the tőp and an inserted skewer intő the centre cőmes őut clean. Leave tő cőől in the pans főr at least 45 minutes befőre transferring tő a wire rack tő cőől cőmpletely.
Whilst the cakes are cőőling, make the jam: Place the berries and sugar intő a medium sized saucepan őver a medium heat. Bring tő a rőlling bőil, stirring frequently tő ensure the sugar dőesn't burn. Cőntinue tő bőil főr 5 minutes and then add the 2tbsp őf Certő. Cőntinue tő cőők, stirring cőnstantly, főr 7-10 minutes until the mixture thickens and cőats the back őf yőur spőőn.
Yőu will reach a pőint where yőu feel it thicken; it will thicken mőre as it cőőls, but yőu will feel it becőme glőőpy. - Anőther way tő tell is the mixture will pull away frőm the pan when it's ready; as in when yőu're stirring it rőund the pan, yőu will see the bőttőm őf the pan where yőu're stirring as it pulls away. Leave tő cőől cőmpletely.
