It's been ideal baking time what with the nights drawing in, the weather getting chillier, kiddies lunchboxes needing filling and my diet clearly going down the pan.
Yesterday I pulled out my 'go to' chocolate traybake recipe and played around with it a bit due to running low on drinking chocolate powder - the kiddies have been having to have hot chocolate every night lately. I did, however, have Ovaltine on the shelf. This gave the traybake a nice malty taste and actually worked really well.
Here's how to make it:
4oz Stork or butter
2 eggs
4oz dark brown soft sugar
5oz drinking chocolate powder (I used 50/50 Cadbury's and Ovaltine Chocolate Light)
1.5oz SR Flour
Milk
Cream the Stork and sugar together until soft.
Beat in the eggs.
Stir in the flour and chocolate powder.
Beat in a splash of milk if stiff.
Spread into a greased and lined tin - mine was 26cm x 18cm - and bake at 170c for about 25 minutes.
Leave to cool.
Slice and enjoy!
