Caramel apple cake

It's my last day at work today and in time honoured tradition I have baked a few cakes for all the guys at work, this is the first time I have made this particular one - "Caramel Apple Cake", I picked up the recipe sheet from a local Waitrose, its pretty simple and blooming delicious with a nice cuppa tea.

Ingredients

300g (3 large) bramley cooking apples (peeled, cored and diced)
125g unsalted, softened butter
397g (1 tin) carnation caramel
2 eggs
225g self raising flour
2 tsp cinammon
2 tsp baking powder
2 tbsp milk
1 tbsp demerara sugar

Method

1 - Preheat oven to 160 and grease and line a 7inch cake tin
2 - Whisk with an electric mixer the butter and 225g caramel together
3 - Add the 2 eggs and beat together
4 - Sift in the flour, cinammon and baking powder and mix well
5 - Stir in the apple and milk and spoon into the cake tin
6 - Sprinkle over the demerara sugar and bake in the oven for 1 hour
7 - Once cooled, gently heat the rest of the caramel and pour over the top of the cake!
