Chocolate and orange cake
The addition of chocolate to this classic flourless orange cake is a revelation.
Ingredients
3 small oranges
6 eggs
150g dark chocolate buttons, melted
55g butter, melted
250g caster sugar
250g almond meal
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
2 cups icing sugar
1/4 cup orange juice
Method
Preheat oven to 160C. Line a 20cm spring form tin with baking paper.
Boil oranges in plenty of water until soft, about 90 minutes. Allow to cool, cut in half and remove seeds. Place in a food processor and blend until smooth. Add eggs, then chocolate and butter and combine. Remove to a bowl and stir through sugar, meal and baking powder.
Place in tin and bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean. Place on a cooling rack and remove from tin when cool enough to handle.
Mix icing sugar and orange juice together in a bowl and drizzle over cake before serving.
