BBQ Caramel Ginger Cake - Grandma Beryl

Ingredients:

2 oz butter

1/2 cup brown sugar

2 tablespoons golden syrup

1 egg

1 cup self raising flour

1/2 teaspoon carb soda

1 teaspoon mixed spice

1/2 teaspoon ginger

Pinch of salt

1/2 cup boiling water

*see notes for what actually happenned

Method:

Mix all together, then add the boiling water.

Bake in a moderate BBQ (or oven), which was 175ish degrees celcuis for me.

Notes on this recipe:

I actually did not read this recipe properly or follow the instructions very accurately.

I was running ingredients down from my pantry and had about those quantities left in everything. Then I completely missed the last note which reads 'add 1/2 cup boiling water' at the end.

So I added another egg because the mixture just looked weird and too dry then decided to call it 'caramel' ginger cake.

It gets even funnier... Because I started cooking too late In the arvo and dinner had to go in the BBQ so I had to move the cake to the top shelf and in the process my cake sunk! .....TRADGEDY!

But my sillyness doesn't end there, I guess it goes to show that if you trust your instincts you can still create a tasty winner and as such I forgot to take a photo of the whole cake, so this is all I had left to take a picture and show you my awesome tasting, although sunken cake.

Enjoy!!
