Ingredients

  • 1 Tray of flapjack
  • 2 Oranges
  • 0.5 Lemon
  • 15 g Cornflour
  • 30 g Caster Sugar
  • 10 g Butter
  • 90 g Dark Chocolate
  • 20 g Margarine

Method

  1. Zest the oranges and use the zest to flavour the flapjack. Follow the flapjack recipe and leave it to cool in the tin.
  2. Juice the oranges (you should get about 100ml of juice per orange). Add the juice of the lemon.
  3. Take a few teaspoonfuls of the juice and mix with the cornflour to make a paste. Set this aside.
  4. Add the rest of the juice and the sugar to a saucepan and heat up until the sugar has dissolved.
  5. Add the cornflour paste and keep stirring over the heat until it's thickened. Then mix in the butter.
  6. Spread the orange curd over the top of the flapjack and chill until it has set.
  7. Melt the chocolate and stir in the margarine. Carefully spread this on top of the set curd, then pop back in the fridge to set the chocolate.
  8. Cut into squares.
