Ingredients:
  • Melted butter, to grease
  • 125g unsalted butter, at room temperature, cubed
  • 440.00g (1 cup) caster sugar
  • 2 eggs, at room temperature
  • 525g (3 1/2 cups) plain flour
  • 10.00 gm baking powder
  • 7.50 gm ground cinnamon
  • 375ml can evaporated milk
  • 185ml (3/4 cup) water
  • Icing sugar, to dust
  • 250ml (1 cup) water
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a 10cm deep (10-cup), 26cm non-stick bundt cake pan with melted butter, then place it on a baking tray.
  • Set up a large heatproof bowl on a tea towel. Combine butter, sugar, and vanilla essence in the bowl. Use electric beaters on high speed to whip until the mixture turns pale and creamy, making sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Add the eggs one by one, beating thoroughly after each addition until well combined.
  • Sift together flour, baking powder, and cinnamon over the mixture. Pour in milk and water, then gently fold with a large metal spoon until just combined.
  • For making toffee, combine sugar and water in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Let it boil without stirring for 15-20 minutes until it turns golden. Remove from heat promptly.
  • Hold the bowl with a tea towel and swiftly drizzle the toffee over the cake mixture. Use a large metal spoon to gently fold the toffee through the mixture, creating lumpy strands as the toffee sets.
  • Transfer the mixture into a greased pan, ensuring a smooth surface. Cover it with foil, folding the edges over the pan. Bake in a preheated oven for 1 hour and 20 minutes or until the cake starts to shrink from the sides and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Gently peel off the foil and let the cake rest for 5 minutes to cool slightly. Then, transfer it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Sprinkle with a snowfall of powdered sugar just before serving.
