Serves
12
120g butter
1/2 cup Chelsea White Sugar
1 egg
2 Tbsp Chelsea Golden Syrup
2 cups flour
2 Tbsp cocoa
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup milk
1 tsp baking powder
Preheat the oven to 180°C
Beat the butter and the Sugar together. Add the egg and golden syrup and mix it well. Sift the flour and cocoa and add with dissolved soda in milk. Beat together until smooth. Add baking powder. Bake in a well greased and baking paper lined 20 – 23 cm cake tin for 40 - 45 mins.
When the cake is cold, ice it with chocolate Icing made with Chelsea Icing Sugar.
Tips: If you’re having a problem with Icing sticking to your spreader, dip it briefly in hot water. The Icing will slide off without sticking.
Thanks to the Country Women’s Institute Cookbook for use of this 'Best Ever' recipe.
Not a good recipe. Flavor is only just there & not even the least bit sweet enough.
Could do with about 50% more butter, another ¾ cup of sugar, double the cocoa, & a decent dash of vanilla.
Then it would be fabulous.
