Meanwhile, make the date-milkmaid syrup by heating MILKMAID, dates and water in a pan till it boils. Now make the batter by mixing the date-milkmaid syrup into the flour mixture.
Pour the batter into the greased cake tin and bake in a preheated oven at 180⁰C for 45 mins or till the cake is done. Remove from oven, cool for a while. Cut into pieces and serve chilled.
