BASIC RECIPE

100 grms each of self raising flour, caster sugar and fat - plus 2 eggs

METHOD

Cream fat and sugar until light and fluffy and creamy
Add one egg and a little flour:  mix well
Add second egg and a little flour:  this time carefully mix by turning over the mixture with a metal spoon until all the flour is incorporated into the creamed mixture.
This is to prevent beating out all the air you put in, in the first place when you creamed the fat and sugar.
