Cook briefly and stir until the butter has dissolved. Remove it from the heat and allow it to cool a little.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">\u00b7 Add the stout\/ butter mix to a large bowl with the sugar and golden syrup and whisk until it\u2019s well combined.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Add the egg and whisk again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Add all the spices and whisk.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Sift the flour and baking soda in by hand and whisk briefly until smooth (it will be fairly runny).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Decant this into a lined 20cm cake tin (square or round), tap the filled pan to remove <\/span>and<span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"> bubbles and bake for 30 \u2013 35 minutes. The cake is done when it\u2019s springy to the touch and when a sharp knife pierced into the thickest part comes out clean<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">While the cake is baking, make your butterscotch sauce.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">The quantities make a little more than you need for the cake but store the rest in a sterilized jar and use with other desserts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Bring the Castle Milk Stout Chocolate Infused and butter to the boil in a medium-sized pan and allow it to simmer for about 10 minutes until it has reduced by more than half. Add the sugar and continue to let this cook, stirring frequently until it reaches 110C \/ 225F on a sugar thermometer. This will take around 15 minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">When it has reached temperature, add the cream while stirring constantly. Carry on cooking this until it thickens more. Once it has reached 105c on the thermometer it is ready. It will also thicken more as it cools.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Let the cake cool to room temperature and then pour the warm sauce over to serve. Keep <\/span>any<span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"> extra on the side to serve.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Cooking notes:<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Preheat the oven to 180C and line a 20 \u2013 22cm square or round cake tin with baking paper.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">If you are making this in advance, heat the sauce up a little before serving.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><em><strong>Want more great recipes?
