Method
step 1
Mix flour, sugar, bicarb soda and almonds briefly.step 2
Add butter and mix untill soft dough is formed.step 3
Add the eggs to the mix and work in untill mixed through.step 4
Fold in the chocolate, you can put either 100 or 150g, how ever chocolatey or not you like.step 5
Fold in the raspberrys whole, don't wory how much they break as you fold in just try to be gentle at this point.step 6
Add mix to 20cm x 10cm loaf tin, or as close as you can get, you could use a cake tin if you like and bake at 150 fan oven and I guess around 170 conventional for 45 to 50 mins or until a sharp knife inserted comes out clean.step 7
Leave to cool for 15 mins and then glaze with a thin layer of jam of your choice, you don't have to glaze I just like to. After further 15 Mins serve with warm custard or cream, I prefer the custard. Once the cake has cooked eat it as it is.
