- Sift over the flour, cocoa powder and baking powder. Use a large metal spoon to fold into the mixture. Once combined, fold through most of the chopped chocolate.
- Pour the batter into the cake tin, level the top, scatter over the remaining chopped chocolate and bake for 45-50 mins until risen and an inserted tip of a knife comes out clean.
