📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Prepare a 9-inch springform or round cake pan, greased and lined with baking parchment.
2
In the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk the eggs, granulated sugar and vanilla sugar on a high speed for a few minutes, until white and light. Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, sift the flour and baking powder together.

3
Carefully fold the flour into the egg mixture. Mix the milk with the melted butter in a jug/pitcher and carefully pour into the batter, folding it in until incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan.
4
Bake in the preheated oven for 35–⏱️ 40 minutes, or until almost done (try not to open the oven door for the first ⏱️ 20 minutes of the total baking time).
5
To make the topping, put all the ingredients in a saucepan and gently melt together.
6
Remove the cake from the oven and carefully spread the topping all over the cake. Return to the oven. Turn up the heat to 400°F and bake for a further ⏱️ 5 minutes.
7
Leave cake to cool before eating, if you can (we are well aware it’s hard to do that).
