Ingredients

Serves: 0

5 ounces softened butter
5 ounces superfine sugar

Heat oven to gas 4/160C fan/180C non-fan. Grease and line a 23cm springform tin.

Combine all the ingredients except the blackberries and beat well. Spread half the mixture into the tin (I use a rubber spatula) and then scatter the blackberries over.

Dot over the remaining mixture so that it covers the fruit (mine is always a bit hit and miss).

Place on a baking sheet and bake for about 1 hour until golden and springy.

Cool in the tin then sift over confectioners' sugar and cinnamon.
