Instructions
First, make the topping. In a small pan heat the butter, sugar and rum (if using), on a low heat until dissolved, bubble for a few mins until slightly thickened. Divide between 6 really well-greased, 200ml ramekins.
Add a pineapple ring with a glac cherry in the middle to each.
Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas
Beat together the butter and sugar with an electric whisk until pale and fluffy. Gradually beat in the eggs, then fold in the dry ingredients. Finally stir in the milk and divide the mixture between the ramekins.
Put them on a baking tray and cook for 25-30 mins until risen, golden and springy to the touch.
To serve, turn the ramekins upsidedown onto a plate or a bowl and tap gently to release.
Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Moscato Dasti, Port
Cake can be paired with Cream Sherry, Moscato d'Asti, and Port. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. One wine you could try is NV Johnson Estate Cream Sherry. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 19 dollars.

NV Johnson Estate Cream Sherry
Very aromatic with notes of hazelnut, vanilla, and a touch of oak followed by sweet raisins and a touch of yeast. Clean lasting finish. Good now but will reward those allow it to age"". A favorite pre-prandial beverage. Consider it with nuts before dinner as an aperitif, or after dinner with dessert, especially chocolates and fruit-based desserts. Also wonderful on cold afternoons, served with biscotti to dip in ""Italian-style"". "
