Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp instant coffee
  • 200g unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 400g tin Woolworths Sweetened Condensed Milk
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 cups self-raising flour
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 tbsp golden syrup
  • 60g butter, extra
  • Walnuts, chopped, to garnish

Method

  • Step 1
    Preheat the oven to 180C. Grease a 14cm x 24xm loaf tin and line with baking paper.
  • Step 2
    Dissolve coffee in 1/4 cup boiling water. Beat butter, brown sugar and 1/2 cup condensed milk in a stand mixer or using hand-held beaters until creamy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well between each addition. Beat in coffee mixture, then add flour and milk and mix well. Pour into cake tin and bake for 35 minutes until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
  • Step 3
    Leave to cool on a wire rack.
  • Step 4
    Meanwhile, make caramel icing by combining remaining condensed milk, golden syrup and extra butter in a small saucepan. Stir over gentle heat for 2-3 minutes until thick and luscious. Allow to cool slightly.
  • Step 5
    Spread icing over cooled cake. Sprinkle with walnuts. Slice to serve.
Recipe Notes

Use 1/2 cup condensed milk in the cake batter, and reserve the rest of the tin for the icing.
