    I made this recipe to use in a raspberry cheesecake trifle. The orange and raspberry together was great, BUT this recipe did not work for me with plain flour. I ended up with a solid, doughy block.

    Not a bad cake, very easy to make. Needed a little less time in the over (approx 10 mins less). I used Le,on rind rather than orange.

    How would you make a chocolate variation of this?
