Directions
Preheat your oven to 175C (350F) and grease your cake tin.
In a large bowl, mix together sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the eggs, milk, oil and vanilla and mix for about 2 minutes. Stir in the boiling water last. The batter may be a bit thin, this is expected.
Pour the batter into an 8-inch cake tin and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
While waiting for the cake to cool, prepare the frosting. Start by blending 1 pack of Tim Tams in a food processor until it is completely crushed into fine crumbs.
In a large bowl, beat the butter until it is creamy, gradually add powdered sugar, then add the crushed Tim Tams, heavy cream, and vanilla extract. Beat for about 3 minutes until the frosting is light and fluffy.
Once your cake is completely cooled, spread the frosting evenly over the cake. Finish off with a decoration of additional crushed Tim Tams.
Your delightful Tim Tam Cake is ready to serve!
