Recipe: Jaffa Gateau

October 23, 2011

Summary: I was discussing cakes with MrAsk and he can’t see why you would have any other cake when you can have chocolate. We fought bitterly about the best flavours and combinations. This cake was the delicious result of our combined efforts.

  • 2 eggs
  • 250g castor sugar
  • 1 cup Greek style plain yoghurt

  • 1 orange, zested
  • 1 tblsp orange liqueur
  • Filling
  • 125g butter, softened
  • 200g icing sugar
  • 2 tblsp good quality drinking chocolate (or cocoa)
  • 1/4 cup orange marmalade
  • Topping
