Dark Ginger Cake

This is a recipe adjusted by Roan. He reckoned the original.... "needs fruit and it's too clovey" - Yep we agree, more ginger and sultanas, but the cake itself is deliciously moist !

150g butter
300g golden syrup
200g dark muscovado sugar
250ml Guinness
3 tsp ground ginger 
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp ground cloves
100g Sultanas 
300g plain flour
2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
300ml sour cream
2 eggs

Preheat the oven to 170°C

Whisk the sour cream and eggs together in a bow.

Mix the butter, syrup, sugar, Guinness, sultanas and spices in a pan and heat just enough to melt, then whisk in the flour and bicarbonate of soda. When fully mixed, stir in the cream and egg mixture.

Pour into buttered tins and bake for about 45 minutes

Cool, then decorate.
