Orange Lemon Cake

MY search for eggless cake is on....till I find a 100% fool proof rec....This Rec was good and bad in many ways.. the rec was fairly simple.. it passed the effort test, taste test but the look test was not at all satisfactory.. the cake sank after i removed it from the oven and was dry and not moist as you would expect a cake to be...anyways. will post this rec here.. but am still searching for  a100% foolproof eggless cake rec which has no CONDENSED MILK or SODA and which can NEVER EVER go wrong...
You will need--
For the cake
1 can of Evaporated milk
3/4th cup sugar
1 stick butter
2 and 1/4th cup All purpose flour
1tspn ENO Fruit Salt
1 cup Lemonade
1Tbspn Orange zest

 For the filling;
2 tbspn Pineapple Jam
 Juice from 1 Orange

Icing

Cream butter and sugar and add milk and beat for 3 min on medium.. Sieve the flour with eno and fold into the milk mixture.. Add the lemonade and orange zest and bake in a greased pan at 350 degrees for 40  mins.

once cooled assemble the cake.. I baked 2 small oval cakes.. i placed one cake on the dish. then poured half of the Orange juice over it.. then covered the top of the cake with the pineapple jam.. Covered this with the other cake.. and frosted the entire cake with whipped cream icing....for the decoration I used buttercream icing as I had to travel with the cake for my Friend's Birthday....She was very Happy with my efforts and the lemon and orange did give this cake a unique taste....but the hit pair for this cake would be chocolate syrup or ganache too...my next attempt at this would be with ganache for another friends Birthday soonnnnnnn

Till I bake again;
Love Ash.
