I've been a chocoholic since I was about 15, when I had my first job and the means with which to buy as much chocolate as I wanted. I have tried to make more desserts and treats without chocolate... really- I have! But it's no use. Dessert without chocolate is like rain without water, music without a melody, love without the spark." ....(an excerpt from my imaginary first meeting at C.A.: Chocoholics Anonymous. But of course, I'd never go, because I never want to give it up. I prefer the Chocoholics 12 Step plan to recovery : never be further than 12 steps away from chocolate!!)... Anyway....here's another beauty for all you fellow Chocoholics. And better yet, for all of you that love that divinely inspired combination of orange and dark chocolate, together, in harmony, in one mouthful. The inspiration for this Cookie Cake came from the lovely Brittany at Real Sustinance, and I've really only changed a couple of quantities, and slightly messed with the ingredient list and turned it into Jaffa heaven. Cookie Cake is definitely an American invention- not something we really do here in Australia, but let me assure you it's well worth trying! If this isn't enough chocolate love for you, check out my lists of sweets and snacks....you will find much more chocolately inspiration there too! You can also turn this dough into individual cookies rather than a cake. Follow the method right down to the bit where you put it on a lined pizza tray. Instead, just flatten tablespoon-sized balls of the dough onto a lined cookie tray and bake for about 12 minutes, until lightly golden. Ingredients:
