NOTES​

You don’t need to use a packet cake mix for this recipe but it makes it extra simple. Use your favourite vanilla cake recipe instead or check out my recipes where I have a few cake recipes

I made this today. Very nice. But, maybe it was my new fan forced oven, but I had to bake it a lot longer to get the cake cooked and the custard set nicely, at 140C. I added about 15-20 minutes at this temperature. Could have been mid-morning peak usage, not sure. But my neighbours and i are enjoying it. Thank you so much, Suzanne Rose.
