Ballymaloe’s Famous Chocolate Orange Cake recipe

Serves 12

For the Orange Cake:

  • 4 eggs
  • softened butter
  • sugar
  • plain flour
  • 2 oranges
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

For the orange butter icing:

  • 1 orange
  • 110g (4oz, 1/2 cup) icing sugar
  • 55g (2oz, 1/4 cup) softened butter

For the chocolate icing:

  • 170g (6oz) chocolate
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 50g (2oz, 4 tablespoons) softened butter
  • 2 large eggs
Weigh the eggs. Take the same weight in butter, sugar and flour. Beat the butter and sugar together until pale and light in texture. Wash the oranges and add the finely grated rind of 2 and the juice of 1 to the butter mixture. Mix the flour and baking powder and add alternately with the eggs. Beat thoroughly. Bake in a 24cm (91/2in) tin in a moderate oven, 180°C/350°F/gas 4, for 50 minutes approx. Cool the cake and split it in two. Sandwich with the orange butter icing and spread the chocolate icing over the top and sides allowing any excess to run off.
To make the orange butter icing, finely grate the rind of the orange and squeeze out the juice. Beat the icing sugar, butter and orange rind together. Add in enough juice to make the icing a spreading consistency.
To make the chocolate icing, melt the chocolate in the water. Remove from the heat and beat in the butter and then the eggs very thoroughly. Leave to cool and set before icing and filling the cake.

  • Grilled mackerel is always a good idea! Especially when paired with a warm and hearty potato salad 🙌

    Ingredients:
    4 mackerel, butterflied, or 8 fillets, trimmed and pin-boned
    600g baby potatoes
    2 tbsp. Dijon mustard
    3 scallions, finely sliced
    4 tbsp. olive oil
    1 heaped tsp. whole grain mustard
    1 clove garlic, crushed
    2 tbsp. lemon juice
    2 level tbsp. fresh chives
    Zest of 1 lemon
    To serve: Steamed summer vegetables

    Method:
    To cook the potatoes:
    ✅ Place the potatoes in a saucepan with enough boiling water to just cover them and simmer for about 10-15 minutes until tender. When the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and then cut them into 2cm cubes.
    ✅ Transfer them to a serving bowl and keep them warm.

    To make the dressing:
    ✅ Combine the oil, mustard, garlic, lemon juice, zest and chives. Taste and season.
    ✅ Stir about 2/3 of the dressing through the potatoes along with the scallions. Reserve the rest of the dressing to drizzle over the cooked mackerel.
    ✅ Preheat the grill to high.

    To cook the mackerel:
    ✅ Line a grill pan or baking tray with lightly oiled tin foil then lay the fish skin side down.
    ✅ Spread the mustard over the mackerel. Season with salt and pepper.
    ✅ Place under a hot grill and cook for approximately 6 minutes.

    To serve:
    ✅ Serve the mackerel with the warm potato salad, summer vegetables and lemon wedges. Drizzle over the remaining dressing.
