Ingredients
- 200g of dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa solids)
- 250g unrefined cane sugar
- 250g butter
- 4 eggs
- 200g flour
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- 40g cocoa powder
- 100g mincemeat
- 1 tsp mixed spice (or gingerbread spice mix)
- 100g walnuts
Instructions
- Dry-fry the walnuts, cool, then chop them roughly.
- Chop the chocolate, then put into a saucepan with the butter and sugar and cook over low heat, stirring, until melted. Let it cool.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Lightly beat the eggs, add to the chocolate & butter mixture. Add the remaining ingredients, combine well.
- Grease a 22 x 22 cm (approx) baking tin and line the base with baking paper.
- Transfer the mixture into the tin spread it out evenly.
- Bake for about 25 minutes - it's done when it's just set (test with a skewer - the middle of the cake should remain a bit gooey & sticky).
