How to make home made Jaffa Cakes
Saturday, September 30, 2017
After enjoying a heated debate about whether a Jaffa Cake is a biscuit or a cake, I decided to have a try at making them from scratch. Not the most obvious thing to try to recreate but I do enjoy a challenge.
To make matters more interesting, three of my oldest friends, Sharon, Gillian and JoJo were coming round for coffee and I knew for a fact that at least 2 of them weren’t the biggest fans of the Jaffa cake. The challenge to impress them with my version was on!
Having made my fail-safe chocolate and orange marble cake as a back up in case it all went wrong, I set about my task. I have shared the recipe below and I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised by how good they were. Best of all, I got a resounding thumbs up from the girls!
If you want to give them a go- you will find the recipe and instructions below.
