Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease two 7-inch cake pans. Beat together the margarine, sugar, syrup, flour, cocoa, salt and eggs in a bowl.
If the mixture seems a little thick, stir in enough milk to give a softer consistency. Spoon the mixture into the prepared pans, and bake for about 30 minutes, changing shelves if necessary after 15 minutes, until just firm and springy to the touch.
Let the cakes cool for 5 minutes, then remove from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack
Whip the cream and fold in the marmalade. Use the mixture to sandwich he two cakes together. Sprinkle the top with sifted confectioners’ sugar.
