Mini Cuppa Cake
This delightfully simple, old-fashioned cake gets its name from its basic measurements—a cup of flour and a cup of sugar—resulting in a moist, self-saucing dessert with fruit cocktail.
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, divided
- 1 cup self-rising flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 can (15 oz) fruit cocktail in juice, undrained
- Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, for serving
Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat Oven & Prep Pan
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease a 9-inch pie dish or cake pan with some of the butter.
Step 2: Mix Batter
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and fruit cocktail (with juice) until just mixed.
Step 3: Add Butter & Bake
Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Slice the remaining butter into small pieces and place them evenly on top. Bake for 35–40 minutes, until the top turns golden brown.
Step 4: Cool & Serve
Let the cake cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
