Magic Orange (or Egg)
 



Intended Result

The result should be individual chocolate sponge cakes flavoured with orange.


Ingredients

An orange for each cake
A packet of chocolate flavoured cake mix
Water (probably) to add to the sponge cake mixture


Tools

A bowl in which to make the sponge mix
A knife to cut the top off the orange
A small spoon, serated would be ideal, to scoop the fruit out of the orange
A spoon, and optionally a fork or small whisk to mix the cake mixture
Aluminium Foil


Cooking Techniques

This may be cooked either in a cardboard oven, or in the embers of a wood fire or barbecue


Method

Cut the top off the orange, scoop the fruit out of the orange and eat it.
Make up the mix according to the instructions on the packet.
Spoon the cake mix into the orange(s), and replace the top.
Wrap the orange in foil, and cook for about 15 minutes.
You will probably need a spoon to eat the cake.


Notes

This may be adapted to cook an egg. Instead of filling the orange with cake mix, just break an egg into the hollowed-out orange. This will also take about 15 minutes to cook.
