Create a dense, indulgent cake by combining plain and self-raising flours. Infuse golden syrup in the batter and drizzle on top for a sweet treat.
Ingredients:
  • 250g salted butter, chopped
  • 250ml (1 cup) golden syrup, plus extra to serve
  • 190g (1 1/4 cups) plain flour
  • 150g (1 cup) self-raising flour
  • 100g (1/2 cup) caster sugar
  • 180ml (3/4 cup) milk
  • 2 eggs, beaten whisked
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 160C/140C fan forced, then prepare a 19cm square cake pan by greasing it and lining the base and sides with baking paper.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the butter and syrup over low heat. Stir until the butter is melted. Remove from heat and let it cool for 10 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, combine plain flour, self-raising flour, and sugar. Mix in milk and eggs until just combined. Gradually incorporate the butter mixture until smooth. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
  • Bake the cake until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Let the cake cool in the pan.
  • Drizzle warm or chilled cake with extra golden syrup before serving.
