Decadent chocolate orange cake, a beloved family recipe.
Ingredients:
  • 2 valencia oranges
  • 200g dark chocolate, chopped
  • 100g butter, chopped
  • 300g caster sugar
  • 300g almond meal
  • Double cream, to serve
  • Icing sugar, to serve
Instructions:
  • Begin by simmering the oranges in water with a lid. After 30 minutes, cool them, then roughly chop and blend into a coarse paste using a food processor.
  • Melt the chocolate and butter using a double boiler or microwave until smooth. Let it cool before using.
  • Preheat your oven to 180°C. Prepare a 22cm cake pan by lining it with non-stick baking paper. In a large bowl, use an electric beater to combine the eggs and sugar thoroughly.
  • Combine almond meal, orange paste, and chocolate mixture until fully mixed. Transfer the batter into the cake pan and bake for 1 hour 20-25 minutes until a skewer comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan, then dust with icing sugar before serving with cream.
