Sweet, sticky and seriously indulgent, this caramel cake is all about rich golden layers and a glossy caramel drizzle. Soft, buttery sponge meets sweet toffee notes in a dessert that’s guaranteed to disappear fast.

Directions
- Add all the cake ingredients to a stand mixer in the order listed.
- Preheat the oven to 160°C fan bake.

- Mix on low speed until just combined, then increase to high and beat until the batter is light and creamy.
- Pour into a greased cake tin.
- Stir your caramel until smooth, gently warming if needed, then spoon it over the cake batter.
- Sprinkle the That’s How The Cookie Crumbles topping evenly over the entire surface.
- Bake at 160°C for 1 hour, or until golden and cooked through.
