Serves Makes 40

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 15–20 minutes

Cooking Time 25–30 minutes

Ingredients

200 g butter, melted
500 g brown sugar
4 large free-range eggs
1 1⁄2 t vanilla extract
500 g flour
1 T baking powder
1 t salt
1 1⁄2 t mixed spice
165 g fudge, broken into small pieces (I use the artisanal one from Woolies)
50 g crystallised ginger, cut into tiny pieces

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C and line a 35 x 23 cm baking dish with greaseproof paper. In the bowl of a mixer, beat the butter and sugar for 1 minute until well combined. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat well.

2. Sift the flour, baking powder, salt and mixed spice into a separate bowl. With the mixer running, add the flour mixture a spoonful at a time until it’s all incorporated. Fold in the fudge and ginger. (A handy tip for this is to put all the bits of fudge and ginger in a bowl with a small amount of flour and smoosh it around so the flour prevents the bits from clumping together before mixing it into the batter.)

3. Transfer the batter to the baking dish and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a skewer comes out with moist crumbs attached. Allow to cool for 20–30 minutes before slicing and serving.
