Cake Ingredients

Method

Cake Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cake Batter

    In a large mixing bowl, combine acorn flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.

  2. 2

    Bake the Cake

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour the batter into a greased 9-inch round cake pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool slightly.

  3. 3

    Make the Smoked Caramel

    In a medium saucepan, heat granulated sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly until it melts and turns a golden brown. Remove from heat and carefully whisk in the butter until melted. Gradually stir in the heavy cream and liquid smoke until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.

  4. 4

    Serve the Cake

    Slice the warm acorn cake and drizzle with smoked caramel. Serve with a dollop of Cornish clotted cream and a splash of your choice of liqueur.
