"Started making this over 30 years ago but must admit a long time since I made it (so times a memory estimate). For the caramel sauce I use my own recipe #recipe14188 - this is the only one I have used so I don't know how any others would work BUT DO NOT USE commercial caramel sauce toppings made for icecream the are to thin, you will end up with a yukky cake. I usually slice the cake and freeze in an air tight container for the DH to take to work for his morning or afternoon tea."

Step 1
Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350F) (for fan forced oven you may need to lower by about 5-10 degrees Celsius).

Step 5
Add flour and milk alternating between the two starting and ending with flour.
