This cake was a rather unexpected combination. It so happened that I had to trim my overgrown mint plant on the same day that my usual condensed milk cans were replaced by caramel flavoured cans in my weekly grocery delivery.
I ended up mixing the two in what turned out to be a fresh tasting, soft and moist little number!
