Chocolate Orange Madeira Cake


Ingredients:


180gr Butter - salted
185gr Sugar - Pref soft brown
3 Eggs
165gr Self Raising Flour
100gr Dark Chocolate - Grated
Orange Zest
1 Teaspoon lemon juice
dash of vanilla essence


Method:

Preheat Oven to 160 Degrees C

1: Beat the butter and sugar together with the lemon juice and a dash of vanilla essence
2: Crack each egg into a cup and beat - add each egg to the sugar
3: Add the zest and grated chocolate and beat the whole mixture until pale and fluffy
4: Fold in the flour until its barely mixed and spoon into a cake tin
Bake for 1 hour

Note:
Again, I always recommend sifting flour from a good height and beating eggs individually so that there is as much air into the mix as possible
I recommend salted butter, depth of flavour is always better.
