Happy Weekend! Here's a cake recipe!

This is my adaptation of a chocolate torte recipe to make it even yummier (just add ginger).*

Ingredients:

• 250 g Dark chocolate

• 2 tbsp golden syrup

• 568 ml (pint) double cream

• a handful of glacé ginger

• as much ground cinnamon as you can handle :p

• coca powder (for dusting)

How-to:

1. Break the chocolate into a bain-marie along with the golden syrup and about a third of the cream.

2. Heat over a low heat until melted (~15 mins).

3. Wait for the chocolate to cool to 'just warm' (I forgot to do this so it didn't work out as well as hoped).

4. While the chocolate cools put the remaining cream, the cinnamon and ginger in a bowl and whisk until the cream takes a few seconds to lose its shape.

5. Fold the chocolate mixture into the cream.

6. Pour the mixture into a cake tin and allow to set in the fridge (I had to use the freezer because I messed up the earlier step).

7. Dust with cocoa.

8. Serve :)

Tom out!

*Apologies to people who don't like ginger - you won't find this tasty.
