2 cups (250 mL) all-purpose flour

1 tsp (5 mL) baking soda

Directions

BATTER

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Beat eggs, sugar and vanilla until fluffy.
Add flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Beat until well mixed.
Heat milk and butter until scalded. Remove from heat and let cook for a few minutes.
Add hot milk and butter to the batter and beat until smooth.
Pour into greased pan and bake for 35 minutes, until golden.

TOPPING

Mix together and spread on top of warm cake.
Broil in the oven until lightly browned, just a few minutes.

TIP: Place a large baking tray under the baking pan when broiling the topping. This will prevent it from dripping onto bottom of the oven.
