I always make cakes on occasions and every time like to try different flavors and design. I made this butterscotch cake for my brother wedding anniversary and everyone enjoyed them. You can enjoy this cake guilt free as it is free of refined flour and refined sugar. I used brown sugar, you can use any unrefined sugar. Nowadays I like to make wheat based cakes as they come out good and healthy too. Modified my wheat sponge cake base recipe to include butterscotch flavor. Whipped Cream is also flavored with butterscotch essence.

Notes
If you are baking in oven, preheat the oven to 180°C and bake in the same temperature for 45-50 minutes
You can use ready made butterscotch chips instead of Praline
Add yellow color to get the same color as you get in shops
Freeze the cake till cutting as whipped cream cakes needs to be kept in fridge
Allow the cake to cool completely before cutting to get neat slices
You can skip the whipped cream and decorate only with butterscotch sauce and Praline too
