A US campfire treat, a s’more is a hot toasted marshmallow and chocolate sandwiched between two graham crackers. We’ve taken the flavours and made a cake!
(3 ½oz) digestive biscuits, broken into large pieces
To decorate
100g
(3 ½oz) plain chocolate, melted
100g
(3 ½oz) mini marshmallows
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan) mark 4. Grease and line base and sides of a 900g (2lb) loaf tin with parchment. In a large bowl, with a handheld electric whisk, beat all cake ingredients except biscuits until smooth. Mix in 50ml (2fl oz) boiling water.
Step 2
Spoon 250g (9oz) of the cake mixture into a separate bowl. Mix in biscuits. Spoon into base of prepared tin and firmly press into an even layer with back of spoon.
Step 3
Spoon remaining mixture into the tin; level. Bake for 1hr 10–1hr 20min or until a skewer inserted into centre comes out clean. Cool in tin for 10min; remove from tin. Cool completely on a wire rack.
Step 4
Preheat grill to medium. Transfer loaf to a baking sheet; peel off parchment. Brush top of loaf with melted chocolate; press on marshmallows in an even layer. Grill for 1-2min, rotating from time to time so marshmallows are evenly toasted. Serve warm or at room temperature, sliced.
