This is another idea I nicked off the Bite.co.nz website. I used peaches instead of apricots due to having some over ripe ones on hand, and our vanilla mix instead of the dry ingredients. I had no idea on how this would turn out as you add custard to the cake before you cook it…..it...
Thank you VIVA for this delicious cake inspiration. The smells when this is baking is mouth watering. You could probably do this with any stone fruit you have. I have baked it two ways, one with dairy and one without. I found using a dark coloured sugar made the sauce and cake a lot browner...
