Cream:
1/3 cup of butter/margarine (80ml) and
3/4 cup sugar (180 ml)
Add:
1 egg
a pinch of salt
Add:
1 1/2 cups of self-raising flour (375 ml) and
1 cup of milk (250 ml) in turns.
Dump the mixture into a loaf tin or a 20 cm square brownie pan (this works the best).
Optional: Sprinkle some polenta over the top.
In a little saucepan, melt for later use:
1/2 cup butter and (125 ml)
2 tsp Marmite (10 ml)
Place cake in a pre-heated oven (190°C) for 35-40 minutes. Test it by sticking a skewer or a knife into the cake. If it comes out clean, your cake is ready.
Poke the cake full of holes and drizzle with the warm butter sauce. Make sure the butter is still nice and warm when you drizzle it over. And no, the butter will not make the cake greasy and gross. It will make it moist and marvelous!
Hint:
DO NOT use low fat margarine or butter. When it comes to melting the margarine/butter and marmite together, you need to stir it a bit to distribute the marmite. If you use low fat spread, it will emulsify when you stir it and it won’t absorb into the cake as well as it should.
