Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9-inch round or square cake tin with parchment paper.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and granulated sugar. Beat until the mixture is light and creamy.
- Add the egg to the bowl and beat well until fully incorporated.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually fold in the self-raising flour into the wet mixture until just combined.
- Add the milk and mix until the batter is smooth and there are no lumps.
- Gently fold the chopped walnuts into the batter. Ensure they are evenly distributed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin, spreading it out evenly.
- Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the top of the batter.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, prepare the icing by combining the powdered sugar with a small amount of water or milk (a teaspoon at a time) until you achieve a smooth, pourable consistency.
- Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the tin for about 10 minutes.
- Transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Drizzle the caramel icing over the cooled cake, allowing it to set for a few minutes.
Slice the walnut teacake and serve it with a cup of tea or coffee. Enjoy!
Tips:
- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting to ensure smooth mixing and even baking.
- Toast the walnuts lightly before adding them to enhance their flavor.
- When mixing the batter, do not overmix as it can make the teacake dense. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a toothpick to check for doneness. Insert it into the center of the cake; if it comes out clean, the cake is ready.
- Allow the teacake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Dust the cake with powdered sugar just before serving for an additional touch of sweetness and elegance.
Your walnut teacake is now ready to be enjoyed. The combination of caramel and walnuts provides a delectable taste and texture that pairs perfectly with a cup of tea or coffee. Whether you’re baking for a special occasion or just to satisfy a sweet tooth, this recipe is sure to be a hit.
