Quantity


Ingredients


200g Self-raising flour


200g Caster Sugar


200g Butter


3 medium Eggs


100g Milk chocolate


50g Chocolate chips


50g Hot chocolate powder


1 small round cake tin (about 6-7”)


Grease proof paper or tin foil











Method


Pre-heat the oven to 200C. Melt the butter in microwave for about 45 seconds then mix in the sugar making sure all the butter has completely melted. Add one egg to mixture, the hot chocolate powder and half the flour. Mix until smooth then add the second egg and the rest of the flour and mix again. Melt 50g of the chocolate, rest for a minute before adding to the mixture. Now cut grease paper or tin foil to the shape of cake tin and place in the bottom of the tin. Add a small amount of mixture to the tin about 1.5cm thick, and then with the remaining mixture add the chocolate chips. Mix gently and pour into cake tin. Place in the oven for about 20 mins depending on Oven type. To test to see if cake is done place a knife into the middle of the mixture and count to 5, if the knife comes out with mixture on it you know the cake isn’t done yet.





To decorate the cake, melt the rest of the chocolate and stand for a min or so. Then smooth the chocolate over the cake with the back of a spoon. Either cover with cling film and place in fridge to allow chocolate to set or if you prefer it warm you can eat it straight away.
