Doubled the baking powder because of some comments and turned out good. It looked really nice and was tall, a success. The cake itself was a little dry and the overall flavor wasn't all there as it just didn't taste like caramel, although I didn't do the icing which was probably the reason. Probably won't make again but was great to try., approved=true, user_name=olivia, hs_createdate=1729474092886, rating_new__1_5_=3, id=17145702535}, {comment_text=It isn't as tall as it looked but tasted amazing., approved=true, user_name=ashley, hs_createdate=1729474055410, rating_new__1_5_=4, id=17161338288}]}

Method

Preheat oven to 180ºC bake. Grease a 20cm round cake tin and line with baking paper.

Place golden syrup and milk in a medium bowl and microwave until warm. Stir in baking soda.

In a separate large bowl, cream butter and sugar until pale and fluffy. Beat in egg.

Mix flour and baking powder together. Alternately add flour mixture (in three additions) and milk mixture (in two additions) to the creamed butter, starting and ending with the flour, and using a spatula to combine.

Pour mixture into prepared tin and bake for 40-45 minutes, until cake springs back when lightly pressed and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Leave to cool in tin for 15 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Icing
Place the brown sugar, butter and milk in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to the boil and boil for 1 minute, stirring.

Remove from heat and stir in enough icing sugar to make a thick, spreadable consistency. Spread over cooled cake.
