Sponge Sandwich Cakes

Pre-heat the oven.
Rub some butter around the inside of two round baking tins of your chosen size or insert a baking liner.
Chop the butter into small cubes.
Put the butter cubes and sugar into a mixing bowl and beat together until light and fluffy.
Break the eggs into the bowl one at a time, beating well after each.
Sieve the flour into the bowl and mix it in.
Add the water and vanilla extract and stir to combine.
Divide the mixture between the prepared tins and smooth the tops.
Bake for the time shown according to the tin size. If a cocktail stick pressed into the centre of the cake comes out clean, it is cooked.
Leave the cakes to cool in the tins for 5 minutes.
Turn the cakes out onto a wire rack and leave until completely cold.
