My Notes:            I made this cake with half the ingredients as it didn’t look so appealing. You will find the batter is quite runny but that’s okay. It baked up well at 180 degrees for 40 minutes.                             I reduced the topping by half again because I didn’t want it too sweet.                             The end product was a surprisingly very tasty cake.

I sprinkled icing sugar on mine. My result came out dark because I tried jaggery instead of date sugar.
