SLOW COOKER GOLDEN SYRUP SPONGE

Steps:

• Preheat your slow cooker. Generously butter a 1.5 litre pudding basin. I use a plastic pudding basin (with a lid) that's especially designed for steamed puddings. Pour the golden syrup into the buttered basin.
• Cream the butter and sugar together until very light and fluffy. Gradually beat in the eggs one at a time, making sure each one is well incorporated before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract.
• Using a large metal spoon, fold in the self raising flour and milk until you have a batter that drops easily from the spoon. You might not need the 4th tablespoon of milk.
• Spoon the batter into the pudding basin on top of the golden syrup. Place a little circle of tin foil on top and pop the lid on top to secure. Place the basin in your pre heated slow cooker. Carefully pour in boiling water until it comes about half way up the basin. Place the lid on top and cook on high for about 3 1/2-4 hours.
• Using oven gloves, carefully remove the basin from the slow cooker. Pour the boiling water down the sink (again, please take care as it will be scalding hot!) Place the pudding basin upside down on a serving plate. The pudding should slip right out of the basin. Serve with warm custard, clotted cream or ice cream.
