I love almonds. These light little cakes have a surprise chocolate centre. Use dark, milk or white chocolate, whatever you prefer! Ingredients:
4 eggs |
175 g caster sugar (3/4 cup) |
200 g ground almonds |
1 fresh lemon rind, finely grated |
75 g self raising flour (1/2 cup) |
100 g of good quality chocolate, broken into squares. |
icing sugar, to dust |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 180 degree C.
2. Line a 12 cup muffin tray with paper liners, or use a patty cake tray with approx.
3. 18 holes and line with paper liners.
4. Beat the eggs and sugar with an electric beater until mixture thickens to the consistency of thickened cream.
5. Fold in the ground almonds, lemon rind and flour.
6. Spoon the mixture into the cases.
7. Press one square of chocolate into the centre of each cake so the the chocolate is completely surrounded by the batter.
8. Bake for 20-25 minutes.
9. Cool and dust with sugar to serve.
