MAKE DIAGNAL CUTS UP TO FOLD LINE ON EACH STRIP APPROX 1CM APART. FIT THE STRIPS AROUND INSIDE OF THE TIN, PRESSING THE CUTS SO THEY FIT AROUND THE BOTTOM EDGE OF THE TIN. 4.CUT TWO ROUNDS OF BAKING PAPERUSING THE TIN AS A GUIDE AND PLACE BOTH CIRCLES IN BOTTOM OF TIN. 5. USE ELECTRIC BEATERS AND TOGETHER BUTTER AND SUGAR UNTIL LIGHT AND CREAMY. ADD EGS ONE AT A TIME, BEATING WELL AFTER EACH ADDITION. 6. ADD VANILLA ESSENCE AND BEAT MIXER UNTIL COMBINED.
