8. Leave to cool on cake rack. Turn out of tin once cool.
9. Make icing/frosting by pouring Icing Sugar into a bowl (I never measure mine, I just guess! Sorry!)

Notes: I don't think I made this for Mumsie but it is something that I have made nearly every week for my family since I have come home to England and I think Mumsie would have loved it with a cup of tea!!
