Creme Brulee Sheet Cake

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 18 x 13 inch rimmed sheet tray.

Step 2

Using a hand mixer cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time until combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the dry ingredients in two batches alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.

Step 4

Pour into the prepared sheet tray and spread to an even layer.

Step 5

Bake for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean. Allow cake to cool fully.

Step 6

Spread the pudding on top of the cake. Sprinkle an even layer of sugar on top of the cake being sure to cover the entire surface. Give the pan a shake to help evenly distribute the sugar.

Step 7

Using a blowtorch melt the sugar on top. Alternatively, broil the cake in the oven being sure to watch carefully so as not to burn.

Step 8

Slice and serve.
