Effortless 6-ingredient layered dessert creates gooey perfection as it bakes. Top with cream, ice cream, or custard for a delightful treat.
Ingredients:
  • 4 eggs, at room temperature, separated
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) golden syrup, plus extra, to serve
  • 125g butter, melted, cooled
  • 75g (1/2 cup) self-raising flour
  • 50g (1/3 cup) custard powder
  • 500ml (2 cups) milk, warmed
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 160C/140C fan forced. Prepare a 20cm (base size) springform pan by lining the base with foil and baking paper, allowing them to overhang the edges. Grease the sides of the pan.
  • In a large bowl, combine egg yolks and golden syrup. Use electric beaters to whisk for 2-3 minutes until pale and slightly thickened. Slowly incorporate the butter while beating continuously. Sift in the flour and custard powder, then gently fold them into the mixture. Finish by stirring in the milk.
  • Beat egg whites with clean beaters until stiff peaks form. Gently fold egg white mixture into flour mixture until just combined (some lumps are fine). Pour into prepared pan with care.
  • Bake for 1 hour until the cake is slightly set with a gentle wobble. Allow it to cool completely in the pan for 2-3 hours.
  • Loosen the cake by running a knife around the edge, then, unclip and remove the pan's side. Serve in wedges and drizzle with extra golden syrup.
