  • I coated with praline on sides and top and made some decorations using whipped cream
  • Finally drizzled butterscotch sauce all over the cake.

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
