Margarets Sponge Pudding

It has taken me years to get this recipe out of Margaret my neighbour. She grows the most amazingly tart organic blackberries in her back yard. She only gets maybe 10 kilos of berries and she makes the most fantastic sponges. She very kindly gifted me with a kilo of blackberries but more importantly she finally handed over the recipe to go with it.

This is her recipe as she gave it to me:

Beat till creamy
9 tablespoon sugar
9 tablespoon butter

Beat in 1 at a time
3 small eggs or 2 large eggs

Beat well (5 minutes)
Add 1 cup self-raising flour with
1 tablespon milk.
(Add more flour if you think you need it.)

Place on top of hot cooked fruit. Bake at 190 degC for about 40 minutes or thereabouts.
