Mix together Standard Grade Flour, cocoa, Baking Powder and Chelsea White Sugar
Melt together the butter and golden syrup in the microwave on high for about 1 minute
In another bowl whisk the eggs, then whisk in the milk, baking soda and vanilla.
The trick with whisking is to move the whisk back and forth in the bowl not round and round.
Beat everything altogether on medium for 1 minute.
Using a spatula spoon everything into your prepared tin.
Bake for 50-60 minutes.
To test it is properly baked, put a skewer into the centre of the cake and pull it out, the skewer should be clean.
Let it cool completely on a wire rack.
While the cake is cooling, we can make our icing.
Place all of your icing ingredients into the bowl. Beat on low to combine, then increase the speed to high beat until creamy and smooth
Use a spatula to place the icing on the cooled cake. Then use a combination of the spatula and the back of a spoon to spread the icing smoothly over the cake.
Enjoy!
