Just like a steamed pudding but much less hassle. Sorry, your blog cannot share posts by email. I love the bitter edge of a thick-shred, dark marmalade and so tend to go for a proper, glamorously auburn, tawny one here; if this is too full-on for you, choose a fine-shred marmalade, instead. Would you mind if I reblog this at some point? The orange twist is a nice surprise.

Thank you". Running and baking; half marathons and cake.

I’m pretty sure I can show you some steps: Firstly, melting together the butter and the dark chocolate until smooth.

Warm the glaze mixture in the pan until melted together, then paint the top of the sponge, letting the chunks or slivers of peel be your sole, unglinting decoration on top of the mutely gleaming pudding-cake. Pour into a greased 9-inch baking tin and bake at 180 C for 50 minutes to an hour or until a skewer inserted comes out clean. Built by Embark.

Like another reviewer I found I had to bake it for longer - about 55 minutes - with foil on top for the last 20 minutes or so.

lovely recipe, lovely blog…. Many times I end up making cakes and cookies with whatever brand of sugar/cocoa/chocolate I can find, and the result is good.

100 g good quality dark chocolate, broken into pieces (I used Lindt), 3-4 tablespoons (preferably freshly squeezed) orange juice. Once the cake is done, allow it to cool for a few minutes, then poke some holes over the top with a skewer. Know that this sponge will keep its orange-scented warmth for quite a while once out of the oven, so you could make it before you sit down for the main course.

I also read a version online that used dark chocolate with orange instead of plain dark chocolate. I ran out of marmalade so used Chunky Ginger Jam instead. It uses marmalade for flavour and moistness. Anyone tried this with pink grapefruit marmalade? Put the chopped peel into the reserved water.

While browsing through How to be a Domestic Goddess (Nigella Lawson, 2000) I came across this recipe which I haven’t made for a while. Bring to the boil.

One day I found myself spreading soft cream cheese over a slice and it was quite delicious! The actual title of this cake is “Pantry Shelf Chocolate Orange Cake”. In 2020 I am continuing with all of those things, except I am not going to run an official half marathon every month! Absolute genius. Because home made marmalade is too precious for baking, and must be preserved (geddit?!) . Made this yesterday and I was surprised at just how deliciously light it is! While browsing through How to be a Domestic Goddess (Nigella Lawson, 2000) I came across this recipe which I haven’t made for a while.

It makes a moist cake full of flavour. When it's almost melted, add chocolate pieces, stir and take off the heat. The second time around, I used a block of generic dark baking chocolate, and the result was a little lesser than the first attempt, but still very good. It makes a moist cake full of flavour. What a beautiful cake addition to your delicious week, it looks so moist! A happy home chef who divides her time between bustling Bombay and laidback Kerala.
