Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 pinch salt
1 ¼ cups packed brown sugar
1 cup water
4 teaspoons butter, softened, divided
¾ cup white sugar
1 egg
5 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a loaf pan.
Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
Mix brown sugar, water, and 2 teaspoons butter together in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until syrup has thickened, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat.
Beat 2 teaspoons butter in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Gradually add white sugar until incorporated; beat in egg. Gradually beat flour mixture into butter mixture, alternating with milk, until batter is smooth; stir in vanilla extract. Transfer batter to prepared loaf pan; pour in the syrup on top of the batter.
Bake in the preheated oven until cake is set and syrup has soaked to the bottom, 30 to 40 minutes.
