Chocolate and Ginger Cake

This is possible the easiest cake I have ever made. Very quick too, so quick you don't even need any baking. I'm not a fan of Christmas cake or Christmas puddings. So this is my version of a Christmas cake. Any one can do it. Quite fun for kids and let them get involved with the cooking

Chocolate and Ginger cake

150g milk chocolate

70g flaked toasted almonds
70g dried cranberries
50g of white cooking chocolate

Method

Start with breaking your dark and milk chocolate. Put over a pan of simmering water to melt in a bowl, and not touching the water. Add the butter and the golden syrup to the bowl of chocolate. Leave to melt until you can do the rest. Get the ginger biscuits and put inside a bag. Give them a good bash with the rolling pin , until they are crumbs. Add in a clean mixing bowl along with dried cranberries and the flaked almonds. Have a look at the chocolate again, give it a stir . When melted mix with the ginger mixture. Grease a baking tin with some oil and cover with some greaseproof paper. Pour the cake mixture in the tin. Melt the white chocolate the same way but do not mix it with any butter or anything else. Drizzle on top of the cake. Decorate the cake with some snow flake and snow man :) . Chill in the fridge for at least 12 hours. I done mine in advance for Christmas. Can be done a week before. Serve with some whipped cream .
