Ingredients
- 4oz self-raising flour
- 4oz white sugar
- 4oz unsalted butter
- 2 medium eggs
- 2-4 tablespoons cocoa powder
- Handful of white chocolate chips (for best results use chocolate chunks instead)
- 1 teaspoon of milk (optional)
You will also need small paper cake cases, a spoon, bowl, weighing scales, a baking tray and an oven!
Â
Method
Â
- Add the flour and sugar to a mixing bowl, and stir until the sugar is well mixed in and the butter more creamy.
- Then slowly pour in your flour, crack in your eggs, and mix well. You should have something like this:
- Add the cocoa powder and mix well. Depending on how chocolatey you want your cakes, you can add more to make them darker and richer, and use only a bit for a mild taste. I went for the mid option:
- Add in your chocolate chips or chunks and stir. Then spread out your cake cases on the baking tray and divide the mixture equally between them:
- Bake at the top of the oven on Gas Mark 7 for around 12-15 minutes. To check if they are cooked, stick a fork or skewer into one and make sure it comes out clean.
- Transfer to a wire rack or plate to cool, et voila! They are nice warm or cold.
