1/4 pound unsalted butter at room temperature
1 cup sugar
4 extra-large eggs at room temperature

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Butter and flour an 8-inch round cake pan, then line the bottom with parchment paper.
Cream the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time. Mix in the chocolate syrup and vanilla. Add the flour and mix until just combined. Don't overbeat, or the cake will be tough.

Place the cake upside down on a wire rack and pour the glaze evenly over the top, making sure to cover the entire cake and sides. You can tilt the rack to smooth the glaze. Decorate with candied violets, if desired, or gently crumble the gold leaf and place it on the center of the cake. Do not refrigerate.

ANNE'S LINIMENT CAKE - ANNE OF GREEN GABLES

Anne's Liniment Cake - Anne of Green Gables image

Taken from "The Anne of Green Gables Cookbook", written by Lucy Maud Montgomery's granddaughter Kate Macdonald. I am posting this as it appears in the original book, which was written as a tribute to her father Stuart Macdonald (Montgomery's son). The recipes were written with precise instructions, geared for young cooks. All recipes were apparently tested by a 12 year old cook, with perfect results. Quote from the book: "Here's the cake Anne really meant to make. Be sure you use vanilla - not anodyne liniment!" Other recipes are available in a cookbook prepared by chef #756627 - book #243014 NOTE: Posting to add to the cookbook. I have not personally made this recipe. April 2011 - The servings has been changed from 8 to 16, as suggested by Caybaybay. :)
