Notes

  1. You can substitute oil with butter.
  2. Sugar can be increased as per your sweet tooth preference.
  3. If you cant source custard powder you can use the same amount of corn starch and add vanilla essence. Only difference will be the colour of the cake. If you want the yellowish colour in the cake, you can add 1-2 drops of yellow food colour.
  4. Baking time will differ as per ones oven temperature.
  5. Always preheat oven before you start to bake.
