Soften the butter and cream with the sugar and lemon juice until well aerated
Add eggs (ideal temperature - 23°C) in stages and cream well after each addition
Add the sieved dry ingredients - flour, baking powder and salt. Rub the mixture until it resembles bread crumbs.
Make a well and add milk and conditioned fruit, mix until just clear. Do not over mix
Hand drop onto tray to get 9 equal size buns and sprinkle with granulated sugar
Pipe in jam into a small hole on top of the bun. (Skip this step if you do not have bake stable jam. I didn't have any so I just applied jam on top of the cake while eating it).
Bake - Double pan at 210°C for 10-12 mins on Med oven settings.
Enjoy these rock cakes with some jam and butter when warm
