Instructions to make Giant Jaffa Cake!! :D:
- Preheat oven to 190C / Gas mark 5
- Make your jelly first, else you will be waiting on it later. To start, add 1/2 pint of boiling water over the jelly in a glass jug (notice we do not use the full amount as only using 1/2 pint really worked for me)
- Once the jelly is all disolved, add the optional marmalade and cointreau
- To create a perfect jelly mould, line a small cake tin with cling film (helps when you take it out) and pour your jelly mixture into the tin. Allow it to cool before placing into the fridge to set (time varies depending on your fridge, but it took about 45 mins for me)
- While the jelly is setting, make the sponge. First, mix together all of your margarine and sugar together to create a smooth buttercream-like mixture. Then, beat the egg in a glass jug and gradually add to your butter and sugar. Sieve in your flour, making sure the end result is smooth and lumpless. Finally, just add a pinch of salt
- Place your cake mixture into a greased cake tin, then create a small dip in the centre of the cake to account for the rise that will occur during cooking, then place in the middle of your preheated oven and bake for 15 - 20 mins, until lightly brown and a knife or skewer can be poked into the centre of the cake and come out clean
- By this point, your jelly should be done. Put your jelly in the freezer for 10 - 15 mins to stop it melting when you pour the melted chocolate over it
- To melt the chocolate, break it up into small pieces into a glass bowl. Melt it over a small pan of water on a low heat, stop heating it once it is smooth and lumpless
- Take your jelly out of the freezer and place it on top of the sponge, leaving a 2 - 3 cm margin around the edge. Allow your chocolate to cool slightly, and then pour over the top of your sponge and jelly, completly covering the top. Once this is done, put your nearly completed Giant Jaffa Cake in the fridge to let the chocolate set
- Your done!! Enjoy your Giant (and slightly alcoholic) Jaffa Cake!! :D
