Cinnamon Tea Cake

Well I made a Cinnamon Tea Cake today - it was the first time I tried this so it was a bit of an experiment! But it turned out very nice and the sponge was very light! I will be trying it again.
1 egg
60g butter
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
1 cup of self-rasing flour
1/3 cup of milk
1/2 cup of castor sugar
1 tablespoon of cinnamon
15-20g butter (extra)
1 tablespoon castor sugar (extra)
Grease a 20cm round cake tin. Heat oven at moderate temperature.
Mix butter, sugar and vanilla essence together until light and creamy. Sift in flour and add milk add milk and combine together. Pour into greased tin. Bake for approx. 25 minutes or until golden on top. Leave to cool for 5 -10 minutes.
Put cinnamon, extra butter and castor sugar into small bowl and put in microwave until butter has melted. Brush over top of cake.
Eat within 2-3 days.
