Method
Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Grease and line with baking paper two 23-25cm cake tins (preferable spring sided tins).
Set out three medium-large bowls. Into the first bowl place sugar, flour, baking soda and cocoa, mix well.
Second bowl: mix together 4 egg yolks, milk, vinegar, golden syrup, vanilla and oil.
Third bowl: beat egg whites with an electric mixer until soft and frothy white.
Pour the liquid ingredients from the second bowl into the first bowl, mix well with an electric mixer.
Gently fold in egg whites with a metal spoon, until just combined. Pour the mixture evenly between the two prepared tins, bake for 35 minutes (or until a skewer inserted comes out clean). Cool in tins for 5 minutes then invert onto a wire rack to cool. Peel off baking paper.
To serve: spread one cake with whipped cream, place the other cake on top, ice top with Chocolate Icing.
Chocolate Icing
Place Chelsea Icing Sugar and cocoa powder in a medium bowl and stir to combine. Add softened butter and pour some of the hot water over the top. Mix together with a knife or spatula, adding more water as required to achieve a smooth, spreadable consistency.
