100g caster sugar

100g butter

2 tbsp instant coffee dissolved in 2 tbsp of water

COFFEE SAUCE INGREDIENTS

50g caster sugar

1tbsp instant coffee

3 tbsp golden syrup

50 ml water

Preheat oven to 180 degrees C. Grease a 23cm cake tin.

Beat butter until light and fluffy with electric beaters. Add sugar and beat for another minute.

Gradually add the beaten eggs, and coffee and water, alternating with the self-raising flour and beating until the mixture is smooth and light. Pour into prepared cake tin.

Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until skewer inserted into centre comes out clean.

For the coffee sauce; mix all the ingredients and heat until the sugar dissolves.
