Caramel Cake

This cake is so yummy. Caramel being one of my all-time favorite flavors makes this one of my top picks for cake.

Caramel Cake

2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk (coconut milk perferred)
2 tablespoons butter

Glaze:
5 tablespoons butter, melted
2/3 cups brown sugar
1/4 cup milk

• Preheat oven to 350° and butter the bottom and sides of an 8x8 cake pan.
• For the cake, you want to first mix the eggs, sugar and vanilla with a wisk until well combined.
• Add flour, baking powder and salt to the egg mixture and mix lightly.
• In a small saucepan, you want to bring 2tbsp butter and the milk to a light boil, then add to the cake batter and mix thoroughly. Pour in the cake pan and bake for 20 minutes.
• While that is in the oven, you're going to mix the glaze together and when the cake is done, you want to pour the hot glaze over the cake.
• This next step is optional but worth it : After the glaze is poured, place the cake under the broiler for only 45 seconds to one minutes.
• Let the cake cool for as long as you can then eat!

Also: this cake is also perfect for a layer cake, you'll just want to double the recipe.
