I love this one;
Just make the mixture of any basic chocolate cake.....then place in the oven for a few minutes. When the mixture is still liquid but slightly harder, drop a Terry's chocolate orange into the centre and cover with the cake mixture.
Once it's cooked, you can cut into the cake and the chocolate orange just oozes out......gorgeous.

It took me a few goes to put the choc orange in at just the right time! Well worth the fuss though, as it tastes heavenly. I found it helps if the choc orange is slightly cold first (in fridge or freezer), so it doesn't go too gooey to fast...
I hope you like it! It's become my and my flatmates' essential Friday 'Green Wing' viewing companion...!!!

Does it work with a creme egg instead of the chocolate orange?

I couldn't agree more oldspice!
'Green Wing' certainly is quite an out-there comedy, very off-beat. It took me one or two episodes to get into it, now I love it though! And to think, this Friday is the last episode of the series......alas *sigh*.
Get watching!

Years and years ago I went out with a boy who invited me home to meet his family and to join the family evening meal. We all sat round chatting over the meal but suddenly a ripple of excitement moved between them and we all cleared up quickly so they could enjoy what they called "the highlight of our week".
They turned on the TV and tuned in to MASH. Within seconds they were all rolling around the floor hysterically. Their dad actually had tears pouring down his cheeks. I sat there astonished. I was about twenty at the time but my boyfriend's younger brother and sisters were all under 14 and laughing at jokes that I just didn't get. It took some getting used to but within a few weeks I was starting to pick up on the "in jokes" and managed a few smiles.
They were the strangest but most loving and warm family I ever met. So if you are out there Larry - you are still fondly remembered. Are you watching Green Wing??

I think I'll venture into M&S for a chocolate binge more often. I tried their 'Ecuador' milk chocolate recently and was most impressed. Avoid the 'healthy' chocolate mousse though, it's pretty foul.
I've got it! Chocolate truffle! Walnut whip with chocolate truffle filling. Now that I'd like....

I heard about the chocolate orange cake by a friend, I put the chocolate orange in with the cake mix and left it all in for the same time and it came out fine...
