Chocolate Traybake with Caramel Sauce

Preheat your oven to 170°C. Lightly grease and line a 30 x 30cm baking tray.
Using an electric mixer beat the eggs and oil on high speed for 2-3 minutes. Add the hot water and beat for a further minute on a lower speed. Add the cake mix and slowly beat until just combined and smooth. Pour the cake batter into the prepared tin and bake for 50-55 minutes or until cooked when tested with a skewer.
Leave to cool in the tin for 15 minutes and then turn out onto a cooling rack. Leave to cool.
While your cake is cooling you can make the caramel sauce.
Add the sugar, water and butter together in a heavy-based saucepan. Stir until well combined and the sugar has dissolved. Allow the mixture to boil undisturbed until it becomes a deep caramel colour. Add the heated cream and whisk through until the sauce is glossy and smooth.
Serve a slice of the traybake drizzled with caramel sauce and a dollop of freshly whipped cream.
