Take a piece of baking paper a bit larger than your cake tin. Put the cake tin on top of the paper. Cut out the corners of the paper.

When the 4 corners have been cut away, don’t worry, you don’t need to be super accurate, put the paper inside the tin. 

3 Put the sugar and butter into a small saucepan and put over a low heat to melt. Stir to combine, don’t worry if all the butter doesn’t seem to combine.

4 Put the Yummee Gluten Free Nut Butter and vanilla into a mixing bowl. You can do this by hand if you want. Beat together but don’t overbeat the Nut but as it will go oily. 

 

 5 Add the sugar and butter mix to the Nut Butter.
