Golden Syrup Cake

Golden Syrup Cake



Happy New Year! Im back from a long break and its quite difficult to get back into the swing of things. Ive not actually felt like baking which does happen from time to time. However, I wanted to bake something for our AlphaBakes challenge this month so I chose a simple recipe from BBC Good Food. Its a golden syrup cake which is really simple to make and tastes absolutely delicious! Ive had it on its own, with creme fraiche and with ice cream and they are all equally good. My colleagues were extremely happy as theyve been without cake for quite a few weeks! The cake smells of golden syrup and you can really taste it in the cake as its the main ingredient. Its a lovely moist cake with a crispy topping. A definite winner! 

Im sending this to AlphaBakes hosted by myself this month and Caroline from Caroline Makes on alternate months. The letter this month is G for Golden syrup.
