Chocolate Orange Campfire Cake
This is an old camping favourite because it creates no dirty dishes as the cake is cooked in an orange. Traditionally the orange is fully scooped out and a cake batter is added. The result is a beautiful combination of chocolate and orange creating a jaffa like flavor. Easy to eat alone or pair with a mild cream, ice cream or custard.
