4 oz (100g) butter
4 oz (100g) caster sugar
2 tablespoons lemon curd
2 eggs
6 oz (150g) seedless raisins
6 tablespoons whisky
6 oz (150g) self-raising flour

Preheat oven to 180C/350F. Grease a square cake tin. Cream the butter, sugar and lemon curd until light and fluffy. Separate the eggs and beat the yolks into the creamed mixture, adding a little flour so that the mixture does not curdle. Add raisins and whisky with a little more flour and then fold in remaining flour. Whisk the egg whites to soft peaks and fold into the mixture. Put into the prepared tin and bake for 1 1/4 hours. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes, and turn out.
